Arnaud asked “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.” Wikipedia, for obvious reasons, has an extensive and useful discussion of copyright laws. they include, “Copyright” at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright#Copyright_by_country “List of countries' copyright length” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries%27_copyright_length “Fair use” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use “Public Domain” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain Despite the known cavets and limitations about Wikipedia, I have found these pages useful as a starting point in finding information about the various aspects of copyright. Yours, Paul H. ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
