edit] Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse. : This work was created by a government unit (including state, county, and municipal government agencies) of the
U.S. state of
Florida. It is a public record that was not created by an agency which state law has allowed to claim copyright and is therefore in the

State of Florida (definition of public work found in Chapter 119.011(12), Florida Statutes). Agencies permitted to claim copyright Florida's Constitution and its statutes do not permit any agency to claim copyright for "public records" unless authorized to do so by law. The following agencies are permitted to claim copyright (as well as trademarks) and any works of these agencies should be assumed to be copyrighted without clear evidence to the contrary:
Florida Department of Transportation – §334.049(1)(a), Florida Statutes (2018) Florida Department of State – §286.031, Florida Statutes (2018)
Florida Lottery – §24.105(10), Florida Statutes (2018)
Space Florida – §331.305(4), Florida Statutes (2018)
Water management districts – §373.608(1), Florida Statutes (2018)
Florida Department of Citrus – §601.101, Florida Statutes (2018) Florida
state universities and
state colleges – §1004.23(1) and §1004.726(1), Florida Statutes (2018) Works by defunct state agencies may be copyrighted if these rights were transferred to a new or different agency (note that legislation transferring such right may not have been
codified into Florida Statutes). For example, copyright in works by the Florida Space Authority may have been transferred to Space Florida. State and municipal government agencies may claim copyright for software created by the agency (§ 119.084, F.S. 2018). In case law,
Microdecisions, Inc. v. Skinner—889 So. 2d 871 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004) (
Findlaw)—held that the Collier County Property Appraiser could not require commercial users to enter into a licensing agreement, holding that "[the agency] has no authority to assert copyright protection in the GIS maps, which are public records." Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the
Supremacy Clause of the
United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may be "public records", their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to the image unless the contract with the agency says otherwise.
