Now the British Library makes 1 million images available
Copyright-free digital material… it's catching…
Following our last report on the Getty's joining in on making digital material freely available for use, the British Library has put 1 million images available for use without restriction on Flickr.
Just follow THIS LINK
In fact, using Flickr is not the brightest and best plan but it's a start, and screen grabs will have to come in handy here if you really want to use any of the images. Still it's a start. MORE please but make it more user friendly. Here is what they said:
'The release of these collections into the
public domain represent the Library’s desire to improve knowledge of and about
them, to enable novel and unexpected ways of using them, and to begin working
with researchers to explore and interpret large-scale digital collections.'
Well, quite…
