Dear list members, I'd like to give access on my website to transcripts of my newspaper articles and original correspondence related to meteorites (and minerals & fossils...):
http://www.thetricottetcollection.com/library_met_newspapers.html http://www.thetricottetcollection.com/library_met_manuscripts.html However I haven't done it until now because I don't know the laws regarding copyrights. Would someone know if diffusing a transcript instead of a scan is legal? Should articles be more than 30 years old for instance? If the newspaper does not exist anymore, is there still a copyright? What is the situation for correspondence letters that I own, from living or deceased individuals? I'm especially looking for information related to US law, but also to the Italian one. I'd like to give access to a high resolution digital copy of the famous Walter Molino drawing of Holbrook in the 1946 newspaper La Domenica del Corriere, based on a copy I own. Thank you for your help, Arnaud The Tricottet Collection (Historic Minerals, Fossils & Meteorites) http://www.thetricottetcollection.com/ http://www.facebook.com/TheTricottetCollection http://twitter.com/TricottetColl# ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
