மிர், ராதுகா, முன்னேற்றப் பதிப்பக நூல்களை மின்னூலாக்கம் செய்தல் #13

Open tshrinivasan opened 5 years ago

tshrinivasan commented 5 years ago

மிர், ராதுகா, முன்னேற்றப் பதிப்பக நூல்களை மின்னூலாக்கம் செய்ய வேண்டும். அவற்றின் காப்புரிமையை யாரும் கோர இயலுமா என்று தெரியவில்லை.

ஏற்கெனவே இல்லாது போயுள்ள அவற்றைத் தேடி, ஆவணப்படுத்த வேண்டும்.

tshrinivasan commented 5 years ago

இன்று சென்னை புத்தக கண்காட்சியில் 10ரூ, 20ரூ என்று விற்கப்பட்ட மிர், ராதுகா, முன்னேற்றப் பதிப்பக நூல்களை வாங்கினேன். அவற்றை scan செய்ய வேண்டும்.

tshrinivasan commented 5 years ago

NCBH இடம் இந்நூல்களின் காப்புரிமை பற்றி TNCPIM கட்சியின் சிந்தன் அவர்கள் மூலம் கேட்க முயற்சி செய்து வருகிறேன்.

For Wikisource projects, one can focus on material that are clearly public domain or released under appropriate creative common license. My understanding is that there is still a large number of works that fall within that category.

@gnuanwar VRT is for commons. For tamil source the books need to be hosted throught commons. Hence VRT is for Tamil books too.

kaniyamdigitalarchive commented 1 year ago

this answer i have got from artificial intelligence bot

Copyright law in India is governed by the Copyright Act, 1957. Prior to 1957, the Indian Copyright Act, 1914 was in effect.

Under the Indian Copyright Act, 1914, the copyright in a literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic work was granted to the author of the work for a period of 25 years from the date of publication of the work. After the expiration of the copyright term, the work would enter the public domain and could be freely reproduced and used by anyone.

It is important to note that the copyright term for works published before 1957 would have expired by now, unless the copyright was renewed. Under the Indian Copyright Act, 1957, the copyright term for literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works is the lifetime of the author plus 60 years after the author's death.

If you are looking to publish an eBook that was first published before 1957 in India, you should keep in mind that the copyright in the work has likely expired and the work is now in the public domain. This means that you are free to publish the work as an eBook without seeking permission from the copyright owner. However, you should still be careful to properly attribute the work to the original author, and you may need to obtain permission from the author or their descendants if you want to use any illustrations or other visual elements that are not in the public domain.
