It currently happens to have 1111 elements, and consists solely of the
articles and books, etc., that I've read in the last 10 or so years
while doing research (but not all of them). It's entirely personal.

In time I will add a README file on github to describe it.

Go ahead, it's free :)

I assume PDDL is OK, too, because that's what I went with in the end.

Just attached the PDDL license to my BibTeX file in the newest commit:
https://github.com/langner/library/commit/38b6cf00e8809c0776f0a142b50ea244ae9862a0

I also have some scripts that go along with my bibtex file. This is where
it gets confusing for me -- should I apply the same license to those files,
or should they carry the same license as the data itself?

Best,
Karol
