I have a request: I am looking for Ellen Glasgow's short story "The Difference". The story was first published in 1923 and the author died in 1945, so I *think* it should be PD in Canada at this point? I'm not certain -- please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you!

The majority of her novels seem to be available on various sites, and they *look* to be the "hey, I slapped this together as PD and now you pay me a buck" situation. But I can't find this one short story *anywhere* online.

The family renewed copyright in 1950, so renewal would next be 1978. It is not listed separately in the copyright database:http://cocatalog.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwe...cal&PAGE=First
But it could be part of a book which is copyrighted in the US. |

Hi everybody,
I'm new here but I don't know who to ask for it: I am looking for free GERMAN ePub ebooks for my iPad. BTW, is there any possibility to use German dictionary on iPad? |

Hallo analogee,
willkommen bei MobileRead. Du bist praktisch nur einen Schritt von freien deutschen Büchern im epub-Format entfernt. Du kannst entweder hier stöbern: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=130 oder mit dieser Übersicht https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Free...s/de/ebooks-de nach deutschen Büchern suchen. Betreffs eines deutschen Wörterbuches für den iPad kann ich Dir leider nicht weiterhelfen, da ich kein iPad besitze und mich deshalb nicht auskenne. Du kannst Deine Frage eventuell noch einmal im deutschen Unterforum stellen, falls Du hier im englischen Teil keine Antwort darauf erhältst. |

Miloš Crnjanski - died in 1977
Wisława Szymborska - still alive Iosif Aleksandrovich Brodsky - died 1996 Wystan Hugh Auden - died 1973 All pretty self-evidently still protected by copyright. Please read the post immediately above the one you wrote. DO NOT REQUEST COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL OR YOU WILL BE BANNED FROM MOBILEREAD! Is that clearer? |

I'm looking for the (public domain) Sexton Blake works. I've not been able to find them anywhere. AMazon has some editions, but AZW - EPUB isn't something I'm confident about.
