I was commenting that it is harder for US residents to add to the list when we are mostly restricted to pre-1923. And much is already available on MR.
Starting Jan 1st published works of pre-1961 deceased authors enter Canada's public domain. They have much more available to them and can legally upload to MR.

It is important for MR because MR has a server in the US for just this purpose of having US public domain books that are not public domain in Canada. If you upload one of them please request a moderator to move it to the US server.
