The company was under a statutory obligation to compile and distribute a "<a href="/wiki/White_pages" class="mw-redirect" title="White pages">white pages</a>" phone directory of all its customers free of charge as a condition of its monopoly franchise. </p><p>Feist Publications, Inc. specialized in compiling telephone directories from larger geographic areas than Rural from other areas of Kansas. It had licensed the directory of 11 other local directories, with Rural being the only holdout in the region. Despite Rural's denial of a license to Feist, Feist copied 4,000 entries from Rural's directory. Because Rural had placed a small number of <a href="/wiki/Fictitious_entry" title="Fictitious entry">phony entries</a> to detect copying, Feist was caught. </p><p>Before this case, the substance of copyright in United States law followed the <a href="/wiki/Sweat_of_the_brow" title="Sweat of the brow">sweat of the brow</a> doctrine, which gave copyright to anyone who invested significant amount of time and energy into their work.

It examined the purpose of copyright and explained the standard of copyrightability as based on <a href="/wiki/Originality" title="Originality">originality</a>. </p><p>The case centered on two well-established principles in United States copyright law: that facts are not copyrightable, and that compilations of facts can be. </p><p>"There is an undeniable tension between these two propositions", O'Connor wrote in her opinion. "Many compilations consist of nothing but raw data—i.e. wholly factual information not accompanied by any original expression. On what basis may one claim a copyright upon such work? Common sense tells us that 100 uncopyrightable facts do not magically change their status when gathered together in one place. … The key to resolving the tension lies in understanding why facts are not copyrightable: The "<i><a href="/wiki/Sine_qua_non" title="Sine qua non">Sine qua non</a></i> of copyright is originality." </p><p>Rural claimed a collection copyright in its directory. The court clarified that the intent of copyright law was not, as claimed by Rural and some lower courts, to reward the efforts of persons collecting information—the so-called "<a href="/wiki/Sweat_of_the_brow" title="Sweat of the brow">sweat of the brow</a>" or "industrious collection" doctrine—but rather "to promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts" (<a href="/wiki/Copyright_Clause" title="Copyright Clause">U.S. Const. Art. I, § 8, cl. 8</a>)—that is, to encourage creative expression. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Threshold_of_originality" title="Threshold of originality">standard for creativity</a> is extremely low. It need not be novel; it need only possess a "spark" or "minimal degree" of creativity to be protected by copyright. </p><p>In regard to collections of facts, O'Connor wrote that copyright can apply only to the creative aspects of collection: the creative choice of what data to include or exclude, the order and style in which the information is presented, etc.—not to the information itself. If Feist were to take the directory and rearrange it, it would avoid the copyright owned in the data. "Notwithstanding a valid copyright, a subsequent compiler remains free to use the facts contained in another's publication to aid in preparing a competing work, so long as the competing work does not feature the same selection and arrangement", she wrote. </p><p>The court held that Rural's directory was nothing more than an alphabetic list of all subscribers to its service, which it was required to compile under law, and that no creative expression was involved. That Rural spent considerable time and money collecting the data was irrelevant to copyright law, and Rural's copyright claim was dismissed. </p><p>All the justices joined O'Connor's opinion except <a href="/wiki/Harry_Blackmun" title="Harry Blackmun">Harry Blackmun</a>, who concurred only in judgment, but did not file a separate opinion.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Implications">Implications</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Feist_Publications,_Inc.,_v._Rural_Telephone_Service_Co.&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Implications"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Idea-expression_divide" class="mw-redirect" title="Idea-expression divide">Idea-expression divide</a> and <a href="/wiki/Threshold_of_originality" title="Threshold of originality">Threshold of originality</a></div> <p>The ruling has major implications for any project that serves as a collection of knowledge.

HyperLaw intervened, joining Matthew Bender in the citation challenge and separately challenging West's text copyright claims. In 1998, the Second Circuit found that West did not have a protectable copyright interest in its first-page citations or its internal pagination citations (<i>Matthew Bender v.

During <i>Matthew Bender v.

Reed Elsevier was now on West's side and filed an amicus brief opposing HyperLaw and supporting West. Thus, though the name of the case might suggest that Matthew Bender challenged West on the text claim, by the middle of the case Matthew Bender was on West's side on the text issue.
