Short on #poetry to read or re-visit?
Check out the Public Domain Poetry site! It's got a glorious late-1990s feel. Plain and simple, no banners, low-key ads, no pop-ups nor overlays.
Just poetry and lots of it. Here's the page for Rudyard Kipling, but there's a ton of stuff if you click back to the "Main Menu."

The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946) (Oscar-nominated noir drama)
As you may know, the British Library suffered a cyberattack in 2023, and still has been unable to restore full image services. A significant chilling factor in my uploading these images earlier was the British Library's prior maintenance that they somehow possessed a copyright for these images.
But I don't think there could be a clearer-cut case for the fact that these reproductions of priceless cultural heritage belong in the #PublicDomain and should be freely available to all.
I've just uploaded a personal archive I made of some 2,458 images of papyri from the British Library website ca. 2021 to the @internetarchive here: https://archive.org/details/blpapimarchive #papyrology #PublicDomain

Das Corpus der Entscheidungen des Bundespatentgerichts (CE-BPatG) ist der bislang größte, frei verfügbare Datensatz von Entscheidungen des Bundespatentgerichts. Er ist eine Zusammenstellung aller Entscheidungen die in der amtlichen Datenbank des Bundespatentgerichts am jeweiligen Stichtag veröffentlicht waren.
Bitte beachten Sie das beiliegende Codebook! Es enthält wichtige Informationen zur korrekten Nutzung des Datensatzes. Es hilft auch bei der Entscheidung, welche Variante für Sie am besten geeignet ist. In der Regel empfehle ich für quantitative Forschung die CSV-Dateien und für traditionelle Forschung die PDF-Sammlung.

I had the honour to be invited by @ZFAVClub to participate in an online live workshop exploring the mighty and wonderful CLI tool of the @internetarchive, in collaboration with @dweb
If you are interested in data preservation and digital commons, please do watch it, as we did our best to shed some light on the most powerful yet little known features of this software.
The #InternetArchive is an invaluable resource for unlimited, public, open, and free storage for the whole Universe. It seems too good to be true, but it is!
We also touched upon the value of #FreeSoftware, #Linux, #decentralization, and #publicDomain.

As far as I remember, I downloaded some #language courses here earlier, e.g. "FSI Language Courses". Maybe you can find them on other websites, too. I like them because they are considered public domain (made by US government employees), so I can freely copy them on the SD card in my mobile phone.

Project Gutenberg turns 54!
On July 4, 1971, Michael Hart had the idea of using a computer to read and enjoy literature. This innovation led to the creation of Project Gutenberg, which continues to thrive today.
