[Taxacom] Copyright

Fri May 11 02:28:55 CDT 2018

Hello,

as far as I know the copyright expells 70 years after the publication date, 
not after the author's death.

best regards,
Andreas

In Germany copyright expells 70 years after the death of the author. For
a publication from 1819 we should assume that the authors are slightly
more than 70 years dead...

Note that the 1819 work as such is free. This means only that anyone can
digitise it. Anyone who digitises a work has the IP rights for the
digitised copy. They do not need to provide free access to it. If Google
digitises old works, they seem to check if BHL, archive.org or anyone
provides a free digitised version. If so, then Google offers free
access. My observation is that if not, Google does not provide free
access to such old works.

Cheers
Francisco
