The Law Revision Counsel's (LRC) office has tables of what's been updated since the last publication of the US Code:

http://uscode.house.gov/classification/tables.shtml

The version of the code at the Cornell LII, which is what I use, says it was updated in June:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode17/usc_sup_01_17.html

Download the PDF from the US Code office, which is shorter and more current than Circular 92, and arrange for a local copy shop to print it.

http://uscode.house.gov/pdf/2004/2004usc17.pdf

The PDF is 214 pages, so I would think that a copy shop could produce copies for somewhat less than the $24 the GPO charges.

If you want to be completely up to date, you can check the LRC to see what new laws in each session affect Title 17 and print out the PDFs of those laws, of which there seem to be two or three per year, but that seems like overkill for your purposes.
