Online journal dedicated to showcasing the most interesting and unusual out-of-copyright works available on the web
Scooped by Robin Good |
The Public Domain Review, a project of the Open Knowledge Foundation founded by Adam Green and Jonathan Gray, is a free online journal collecting and showcasing the most interesting and unique copyright-free works available on the Internet.
The Guardian reports: "...the site and its newsletter showcase the best and quirkiest texts, images and films the internet has to offer.
...A model of digital curation."
The mission of the PDR is to "celebrate and showcase online material which is openly licensed, and thus free for people to share and re-use for any purpose".
My comment: A treasure trove of unique, rare and valuable pieces of content organized in helpful collections. A gate to discovery of otherwise unfindable gems.
Free to use.
