My heart skipped for a moment when I saw it was creative commons, but then I realised it's creative commons 0 = public domain!

Here is the cover for Poems

why not? On the Commons page it says "This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1924 and 1963 and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed. Unless its author has been dead for the required period, it is copyrighted in the countries or areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada (50 pma), Mainland China (50 pma, not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 pma), Mexico (100 pma), Switzerland (70 pma), and other countries with individual treaties. See Commons:Hirtle chart for further explanation."

Anybody can upload anything to wikimedia commons and claim it is not copyrighted. Wikipedia as a whole does not do any copyright checks. Neither do we have a way of verifying that the claim above is correct.

We do accept images that were published pre-1924 since they are automatically pd in the US, no questions asked. Please find another one.

Hello, wonderful cover makers, and thank you so much Monika for making this lovely one. Unfortunately, the soloist has just noted that we have her as Aida Bouzama, when she is actually Aida Boumaza. Is it possible to fix this without creating too much additional work?

Don't make me nervous, that is the reason I re-uploaded it yesterday Aida was so kind to notify me I really hope I loaded the right one up the second time, I triple checked it.

All good! I didn't realize she had contacted you as well. Thanks so much for fixing.

3 covers added ... and linked. Thank you.

Two covers:

Cover art taken from the Gutenberg text.

Cover design is entirely by me - didn't use a picture from anywhere! The text in the background is from the book itself.

Here is the cover for History of Egypt

The cover for "Helps to Holiness" by Samuel Logan Brengle can be found here: https://librivox.org/uploads/covers/Salvationist.zip

I'm really glad to see this series completed! It was an honour to create the covers for it. Might someone be willing to create a series page? The three books are "Helps to Holiness", "Heart Talks on Holiness", and "The Way of Holiness".

We don't normally create series for small numbers, in some ways it is more to do with search page results appearance than anything else - \Groups were originally designed to cope with bible books, to give people an easy way to find the complete version rather than wade through several pages of individual books of different versions in different languages. The anti case is that the present search display means the groups don't show well (it's on a wish list ) So at the moment I wouldn't make them a series, but if the BC wanted she could ask for the links to the volumes to be added to the summary.

Anne

I think everything is up to date, just tell me if I've missed any.
David - the BC (Beth) and others have put in much effort finding texts for Brengle - it would be nice to post your appreciation in either the project thread or viewtopic.php?f=1&t=69322&p=1441761&hilit=brengle#p1441761 . It's always nice to be thanked

Thank you everyone
