Nothing to celebrate in USA on 'Public Domain Day' 2014
Quote:
The first day of the year is also the day when published works enter the public domain after their copyrights expire. Unfortunately, Public Domain Day 2014 is not a happy one, according to the book mavens at Duke University.

“Not a single published work” is entering the public domain in 2014, Duke’s Center for the Study of the Public Domain said on its website. “Once again, we will have nothing to celebrate this January 1st....In fact, in the United States, no publication will enter the public domain until 2019.”
