1977 was the year of copyright at the American Institute of Physics. It began with a seminar that included the Governing Board and society officers, continued with editorials and new‐policy statements from journal editors, and ended with AIP staff ready with procedures to implement those policies. These preparations were all in anticipation of the new US Copyright Law, effective 1 January 1978.
