Hi Jennifer,

There may be some works with other licences, not necessarily public domain,
i.e. creative commons share alike or similar.  In that case you can still
use the work in whatever way you like but you should acknowledge your
source, as is done in science anyway.  So, please check the license of each
work and read up on it to be sure.

Great to see something like this happening.  All the best with your
research!

cheers,
   Steve
