Public Domain Mark enables works that are no longer restricted
by copyright to be marked as such in a standard and simple
way, making them easily discoverable and available to others.

museums, libraries and other curators are knowledgeable about
the     copyright    status    of  paintings,     books    and
manuscripts, photographs and other works in their
collections, many of which are old and no longer under
copyright.
