Hello Australian and GLAMtools lists,
I read today on the Creative Commons Australia blog that CSIRIO's
ScienceImage library has been re-licensed to CC-BY:

non-Australians CSIRO is our national science/research institute].
This is a fabulous series of images, nearly all of which are useful in WP
articles as they are taken for 'scientific' purposes which means they are
easily usable as educational images. Take a look:

these files to mass upload them to Commons? Equally, we could try to
contact CSIRO directly?
