Description
The US Copyright Office recommends that copyright holders use copyright notices that include the year of first publication of the work. See What is a copyright notice? How do I put a copyright notice on my work? [1].
TL;DR: Only the year of first publication is required. The statement does not need to be updated when changes are made in subsequent years.
