I think you will find that if you credit the source you won't have any legal
difficulty, this might fall into the category of literary translations. I'm
not sure how there can be a work holder if the piece is public domain. But
if you also show the facsimile of the manuscript (I assume you won't
Yes, I agree. But on the other hand we rely on publishers like Albert

Dear Michael,
I don't think there is any kind of conspiracy to prevent those of us with
an interest in original sources of music to obtain copies. I don't have a
vast experience of this, but I have not failed so far to obtain either a
microfilm or print
Hi Jason -
How about looking at library fees as your contribution to keeping
the music that you love alive? Libraries are facing tough times now.
The people who work making microfilms aren't getting paid a lot of money,
and the directors of the library are getting pressured to cut services
with it.

Hi Jason
Hello Chris et al.,
I recently discussed some of these same topics with a friend of mine who
happens to be a copyright researcher in the Copyright Office of the US

If I get a facsimile or manuscript of a public domain work, can I create a
modern tab edition without licensing the rights (not copyright) from the work

I think there may be legal (as opposed to civil)
restrictions on manuscripts, especially those that
have not beem published.
