Depending on the author agreement, publishers may only have a limited rights to a published work. After the time has expired, the rights go back to the original author. There's been some QL software like this.

For Image Use, Museums and Libraries usually charge for images from their collections. The Museum of Local History (where I am the President) does this and we generate operating revenue from this.

For the Jan Jones book, the illustrations might be done by someone else and can easily be redone. They were fairly simple, but not something that an OCR software could handle.
