(e) With respect to transmission programs that have been fixed and
transmitted to the public in the United States but have not been
published, the Register of Copyrights shall, after consulting with the
Librarian of Congress and other interested organizations and officials,
establish regulation governing the acquisition, through deposit or
otherwise, of copies or phonorecords of such programs for the collections
of the Library of Congress.

(1) The Librarian of Congress shall be permitted, under the
standards and conditions set forth in such regulations to make a
fixation of a transmission program directly from a transmission to the
public, and to reproduce one copy or phonorecord from such fixation
for archival purposes.

(2) Such regulations shall also provide standards and procedures
by which the Register of Copyrights may make written demand,
upon the owner of the right of transmission in the United States, for
the deposit of a copy or phonorecord of a specific transmission
program. Such deposit may, at the option of the owner of the right of
transmission in the United States, be accomplished by gift, by loan
for purposes of reproduction, or by sale at a price not to exceed the
cost of reproducing and supplying the copy or phonorecord. The
regulations established under this clause shall provide reasonable
periods of not less than three months for compliance with a demand,
and shall allow for extensions of such periods and adjustments in the
scope of the demand or the methods for fulfilling it, as reasonably
warranted by the circumstances. Willful failure or refusal to comply
with the conditions prescribed by such regulations shall subject the
owner to the right of transmission in the United States to liability
