Requesting reinstatement of offline books -- What forum?

GrannyGrump · 05-25-2016, 08:40 AM

Is this the place to request offline books to be reinstated? If so, I would like to request the books of S.S. van Dine (1888-1939). Harry T. had posted these, and could we have them back please? (My storage drive that had those got injured, and I need them)

If this is not the spot, or if this is not the correct method for such request, please move me or let me know what I need to do.

Many thanks for your good deed.

The site owner took these offline because the US publisher complained, and he didn't want the legal hassle, even though they are in the life+70 public domain. So I'm afraid not.

<sigh> That is too bad.
I thank you for letting me know.

I am as annoyed about it as you are, believe me.

The Patricia Clark Memorial Library is still hosted in the US?
