Wed Jul 3 10:02:40 UTC 2013

Hi Diane,

I just saw your message. Congratulations on the OKFN local group. I am
editor of The Public Domain Review, and we have just featured a post on old
photographs of Canada. I thought you and the group might be interested. Its
the inaugural post of a new series we have just started called Curator's
Choice.

Here's the post:

All the best,

Adam.
