Book Copyright Services, Registration, ISBN and Compliance

Copyright, ISBN, and Library of Congress requirements work differently depending on where you and your book are based, and getting this wrong can mean wasted money or missed protection. We handle copyright registration, ISBN registration, and compliance documentation correctly for your specific situation, not a single generic process applied regardless of country.

Marketing that puts your book in front of real readers.

Fiction lives or dies on discoverability. Readers find novels through categories, series pages and other readers, not through press releases, so we build the marketing around how people actually choose their next book.

Book launch campaign

Pre orders, advance reader copies and early reviews lined up before release day, because a novel with no reviews in week one is invisible in week two.

Metadata and discoverability

The right categories, keywords and comparison titles so your novel surfaces next to the books your readers already buy.

Ongoing promotion

Fiction sells slowly and steadily. We keep the book visible for months after launch, which matters most if you are writing a series.

Copyright and Compliance, By Country

01 UK Copyright Guidance

Since UK copyright is automatic, our support here focuses on documentation and evidence, and private registration services that provide a dated record, rather than a nonexistent government registration process.

02 US Copyright Registration

Support navigating formal registration through the US Copyright Office where relevant to you, including explaining the practical legal benefits registration provides beyond automatic copyright.

03 ISBN Registration Services

ISBN registration through the correct national agency, Nielsen for UK authors, Bowker for US authors, or the relevant agency for your country, avoiding the common error of applying through the wrong national system.

03 Library of Congress Control Number Guidance

Honest guidance on LCCN eligibility, which is generally limited to US published books, and what the realistic options are for UK and international authors who do not qualify.

One Team, Honest About What Actually Applies to You

A lot of confusion in this area comes from generic advice written for one country and applied to readers everywhere. Ordwick’s compliance support starts by confirming your actual situation, country, publishing route, and goals, before giving guidance, rather than assuming a US process applies to a UK author or the reverse.
"I spent hours reading online publishing forums and was completely panicked about figuring out how to register my copyright with the government. Ordwick calmly explained that as a UK author, my copyright is automatic, and they helped me set up the proper dated evidence instead. They saved me so much time and anxiety by providing advice that actually applied to my country, not generic US guidelines."
James L., UK Author
"Other 'full-service' publishing companies tried to upsell me on an expensive 'Library of Congress' package. Ordwick was the only company that was completely honest, telling me upfront that as an international author, I wasn't even eligible for an LCCN. That kind of transparency is rare. They handled my compliance perfectly without selling me things I didn't need."
Elena R., Non-Fiction Author
"Writing the book was the fun part; the legal and administrative side was terrifying. Having the Ordwick team handle my formal US Copyright Office registration and compliance documentation gave me complete peace of mind. Knowing my intellectual property is legally protected and properly documented allows me to focus entirely on writing my next book."
Marcus T., Fiction Author

"Ordwick didn't just publish my book; they treated it like a piece of architecture. Every font choice, every margin, every marketing move was intentional and precise."

Author Of 'the Architecture Of Silence

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions about book copyright services

It depends on your country. In the UK, copyright is automatic on creation, there is no government registration to apply for. In the US, copyright is also automatic, but the US Copyright Office offers formal registration that provides additional legal benefits if you need to enforce your rights. This is general information, not legal advice, consult a solicitor for guidance specific to your situation.
In the US, this means applying through the US Copyright Office. In the UK, there is no equivalent government process, private services can provide a dated record as evidence, but this is not the same as government registration and should not be described as such.
Through your country’s national ISBN agency, Nielsen in the UK, Bowker in the US, or the relevant agency elsewhere. Applying through the wrong country’s agency is a common and avoidable mistake.
An LCCN is a US Library of Congress cataloguing number, generally available only for books published in the US. If you are publishing from the UK or another country, an LCCN is typically not available to you, and this should be confirmed honestly rather than assumed.
No. We provide general guidance and practical support with registration and documentation, but specific legal questions about your rights should go to a qualified solicitor or attorney, or your national copyright office.
Cost depends on which services you need, ISBN registration, documentation support, or formal registration guidance where applicable. Request a quote and we will price your specific situation.
