<p>The public domain is a priceless resource for all of us, and for the generations after us. Its a free repository of our culture going back centuries—a way for us to see where we came from and to chart where were going. It represents our collective cultural heritage.</p> <p>The public domain is a priceless resource for all of us, and for the generations after us.

<p>In the past, copyright was a limited boon, designed not to enrich a creator and their childrens children a hundred years from now, but rather to allow a creator to profit by granting a <em>temporary</em> monopoly on reproduction, in exchange for their work to be returned to the public after a few years. Our ancestors—in fact, the framers of the US Constitution—recognized that art builds on art, and that locking up culture benefits a handful but harms the the greater public.</p> <p>In the past, copyright was a limited boon, designed not to enrich a creator and their childrens children a hundred years from now, but rather to allow a creator to profit by granting a <em>temporary</em> monopoly on reproduction, in exchange for their work to be returned to the public after a few years.

<p>Today, large corporations are putting a lot of money into twisting our laws to slowly but surely strangle the public domain, making it increasingly remote and inaccessible so they can continue seeking rent on ideas and culture nearly a century old. Today laws lock up work not just for the authors entire lifetime, but for the lifetime of their children, and <em>their</em> children. Copyright cant enrich the dead, but it <em>can</em> enrich powerful corporations at our—at <em>everyones</em>—expense.</p> <p>Today, large corporations are putting a lot of money into twisting our laws to slowly but surely strangle the public domain, making it increasingly remote and inaccessible so they can continue seeking rent on ideas and culture nearly a century old.

<p>Dedicating the work Standard Ebooks produces to the public domain is our small way of letting the world know how important it is to fight that. If corporations have their way, the last liberated and free culture youll ever have is what was published before 1924.</p> <p>Dedicating the work Standard Ebooks produces to the public domain is our small way of letting the world know how important it is to fight that.
