Hi Ole,
The link works for me!
It's too bad that they don't include a link to the Creative Commons Public Domain Mark but refer to their general copyright page. I wonder if it's possible to embed a licence URI/URL in a PDF-file's header?
Cheers,
David

The book has been digitized now. I can see it at http://www.kb.dk/e-mat/dod/130019427200.pdf
You may or may not be able to see it.

Great - thanks Ole!
So - from the point of view of prospective reusers - does this mean that e-books from DOD can be freely circulated and reused (as per opendefinition.org)? E.g. will scanned e-books or digital editions be made available with a legal waiver (Public Domain Mark / CC0) or equivalent "no rights reserved" legal disclaimers?

The library assumes that everything pre-1900 is out of copyright, and yes: There are two projects - e-books on demand (EOD) and digitizing on demand (DOD). EOD is an Europeana project where the user pays for time spent (iirc), while DOD is Royal Library only, and free. The time frames are as you mentioned, Jonathan.
Oh, David: please do not move too fast - the people involved in the DOD project need to catch their collective breaths (I also need some of the to write Wikipedia articles) :-)

Great news!
While it looks like pre-1600 and 1601-1700 will be only available via EEBO for people outside DK (which requires a fairly hefty institutional subscription fee?), the 1701-1900 texts appear to be freely available? Does anyone know about the legal status / license / terms of use of these texts?

Hi! The Royal Library in Copenhagen has started making free e-books on demand from Danish 1701-1900 books in their collections. By doing this, they get more usage but less wear and tear and more space in the reading room :-) More on http://www.kb.dk/en/nb/samling/dod/index.html Regards, Ole -- http://palnatoke.org * @palnatoke * +4522934588 tel:%2B4522934588
