Re: [ARSCLIST] Bluegrass repository?
What is copied below is not at all my experience. My donation to the
Library of Congress of my 40-year-old audio recordings of bluegrass music are not
copyable for any commercial purpose without my permission. I do not
experience the Library of Congress Folklife collection or the Smithsonian Folkways
Collection as breaking these agreements.
