A Place for a List of Authors that Died in 1958
I decided to start a thread for listing authors that died in 1958. That means they will go Public Domain On Jan 1 2009 (Next week). Feel free to add to the list....
1. James Branch Cabell 2. Henry Kuttner (one week left Dr. Drib!) ??? |

Might I suggest that a list of authors who died in 1938 might be of more widespread interest? They will be the ones who will enter the public domain for the majority of us next week (but not, alas, in the US). |

but there's no reason not to include authors who died in 1938 in this list as well. |

There is a blog on Canadian copyright I follow. Back in January 2008 it had a list like this. It will probably have another list in a couple weeks. Unfortunately, the blog is down at the moment.
