- dublinben 11y agoIt's even more astounding that this library is asserting copyright on a nearly 400 year old document.[0] This material is unquestionably in the public domain.

- kwhitefoot 11y agoIt is but the photographs might not be. In the US a straightforward photographic copy is not regarded as a work of art and hence is not copyrightable (see http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/about/copyright-issues.html http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/about/copyright-issues.html), I'm not so sure the case law is so clear elsewhere. If you could somehow take your own pictures of it then you could certainly dedicate those to the public domain.
- antsar 11y agoIs it still a "straightforward photographic copy" now that they've added the ruler for scale though? Perhaps that makes it copyrightable.
