Sorry, Marty, but in that I do appreciate the site and what you personally have for it and the Society, I have to agree with Sara about the copyright issue at hand. I worked in an educational institution's printing operations for 23 years and part of that time was responsible for adherence to the copyright law. I attended many conferences and the copyright law was always a hot issue. As a result some of the top lawyers and experts in the copyright law field were on hand to discuss and answer our questions. Any information on a website which is considered to be in the public domain is not under the copyright law. This information is those records which are more than 72 years of age. Some of the information on the JCHS site may have copyright protection, such as design. However, information on the site which can be obtained by any individual by writing the respective institution holding them or in person at the said institution is not protected by copyright. If they were then these records would not be readily available to individuals upon request. There are some records which fall under the Sonny Bono Copyright Law which increased the number of years an item is protected by copyright and in some cases provided the copyright holder has applied for the allowed-by-law extension period.
