What is a work in the public domain?

"A work in the public domain can be copied freely by anyone. Such works include those of the U.S. Government and works for which the copyright has expired. Generally, for works created after 1978, the copyright lasts for fifty years beyond the life of the author. Works created before, but not  published before, 1978 have special rules. For works created and first  published between 1950 and 1978 the copyright lasts 75 years. For works created and first published before 1950, it lasts for 28 years but could  have been renewed for another 28 years. When planning a project, start by  identifying works in the public domain that can be reused in the new work.

Request permissions for materials not in the public domain early in the  project. It is easier to redesign a project in the beginning stages if you discover that permission to copy cannot be obtained for certain images or  sounds."
