interesting, as it was NYPL (New York Public Library) that caught my attention in this case (but I have noticed similar copyright notices in most other libraries as well, e.g. German and Italian ones). NYPL have released recently 20.000 maps as CC-0, but looking for other media I found these copyright disclaimers (for 18th century material). As they are quite big I thought they must have a reason and be somehow backed by legislation before they put those disclaimers on their website and ask fees according to the intended use (e.g. 200-300USD for a picture to be used in print). cheers, Martin
