This looks cool really cool.

What's our policy on the PDR? Do we post public domain images regardless of
whether the institution that digitized them believes that a scan is a
copyrightable work?

@Jonny: also worth thinking about in connection with TEXTUS EU. I had
dinner with Net7 last night and they were interested in thinking about ways
that TEXTUS EU could support texts and excerpts could be collected together
with other materials such as images and linked in various ways. - mainly
for teaching purposes.

Funny that this comes through today as it seems to be the exact use case we
were discussing.
