Another week, another update! As always, let me know if there are other
resources I can list on the FOSsil Bank—or you can add them to the wiki
itself!

(I got a bit swamped with work, but I'll publish the Libre wikipedia page
soon)

Libre Resources

   - Juanitos <http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:juanitos> are a band
   that produces retro boogy music. It's good fun and you can listen to and
   download it gratis from Jamendo. CC BY or CC BY-SA.
   - Open Library <http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:open-library> is a
   metadata project to create a webpage for every book that ever existed. It
   doesn't assert copyright itself, but contributors may have some residual
   rights.

   collection of public domain images (mostly of space, of course) curated by
   the Internet Archive.
   - The US Government
<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:us-government>is the source of a
tremendous amount of public domain resources, because of
   a great federal law that works produced by an employee of the US Government
   in the course of their duties are in the public domain.
   - The White House

photographs, press releases and so on that might be
   useful. To avoid ambiguity about the application of the public domain, it
   is also under CC BY.
