Newspapers.com and other online newspaper databases
« on: May 25, 2023, 08:35:41 PM »

I have a newspapers.com subscription and I can see comic strips of all kinds on it. It is a simple matter to clip a comic and download it, then upload here, technically. What should I be aware of as far as copyright, though?

Follow up question: Even if newspapers.com is copyrighted and requires a subscription, my understanding is that the Chronicling America database is public domain, correct?

(see for example:
https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85060004/1925-10-17/ed-1/seq-8/#date1=1770&index=9&rows=20&words=KAT+KRAZY&searchType=basic&sequence=0&state=&date2=1963&proxtext=krazy+kat&y=10&x=11&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1)
