Did you know that most books published between 1923 and 1963 are in the public domain?

By Stephen M. Nipper

At least that is what Google, in reviewing Copyright renewals is finding. See Google Book Search Blog on US copyright renewal records available for download. Google’s latest announcement (the topic of that post) was scraping together a 56MB XML file (zipped) containing a list of the books that were not renewed. The fact that Google is tracking such information and (presumably) scanning those public domain books for online reading…is an unbelievable thing. [Originally posted on The Invent Blog.
