Maybe the highlighting didn't come out. I specifically did not highlight
cover images. So to re-emphasize:

UNCOPYRIGHTABLE:
***format of work*, *non-web identifiers (ISBN, LCCN, OCLC number etc.)*, *an
indication of rights associated with a work, information on sponsorship
(e.g. funding), information about carrier type, extent and size information,
administrative data (last modified etc.), relevant links (to wikipedia,
google books, amazon etc.), table of contents, links to digitized parts of a
work (tables of content, registers, bibliographies etc.), addresses and
other contact details about the author(s),*

NO OPINION OFFERED BY PMR:
cover images, abstracts, reviews, summaries, subject headings, assigned
keywords, classification notation, user-generated tags, exemplar data
(number of holdings, call number), …
