Basically, WM-IT hosts a small library with works of Italian authors
which are PD in Italy but not in the US. Basically, in Italy it's PD
70 years after the author's death, but the works were published after
1923, so they are still (c) in the US. The idea is to avoid
duplicating efforts when wikilivres is already there.
