Kahlil Gibran--copyright?
Most books by Kahlil Gibran* (1883-1931) which were originally published from 1923 through 1963 are still copyrighted in the USA but should be in the Public Domain in life+70 countries.
Can I upload books by him to MR or will they be moved to the Offline forum? * AKA Khalil Gibran |

He also published before 1923 when a change in copyright occurred.

Yes: Upload. No: Do not upload. (At least as far as MR is concerned, whether or not is it legal for you to upload, according to your local laws, is a different matter.) |

Thanks for the clarification. I just wanted to double-check this, because, IIRC, mobileread.com is hosted by a server located in the USA.
