In May or June, 1855, The Amboy Printing Association was formed, which secured the printing of The Lee County Times (soon changed to the Amboy Times) which was also related to the ancestry of the present Lee County Times, published now in Paw Paw. A.N. Dickens was the first editor.
A copyright is a legal device that gives the creator of a literary, artistic, musical, or other creative work the sole right to publish and sell that work. Copyright owners have the right to control the reproduction of their work, including the right to receive payment for that reproduction. An author may grant or sell those rights to others, including publishers or recording companies. Violation of a copyright is called infringement.
In the United States either the Â© symbol or the words Copyright or Copr. may be used. Or you can use the Â© symbol and the words Copyright or Copr. However, in those foreign countries that require that a copyright notice appear on a published work for it to be protected by copyright at all, you must use the Â© symbol (you can also use the words Copyright or Copr. if you wish).
