So what happens when our editors start using their access to copy public domain works hijacked by JSTOR into Wikisource when the contract Wikimedia has with JSTOR forbids that activity? Will Wikimedia tell its contributors that they can't copy these indisputably public domain works into Wikisource? Why does it seem that no one in this thread is bothering to even consider attaching to pre-existing university library access? Must we always reinvent the wheel? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
