If the pictures are PD, then only according to {{PD-US}}. The others are covered by a license for educational and scholarship purposes only ("The contents of this digital collection are provided for use in research, teaching, and private study.

- Delete, but not for the reasons Rtc gave. I brought this up a while ago, and according to http://www.loc.gov/rr/print/res/369_curt.html, even the post-1923 photographs never had their copyright renewed, so they're all public domain. Northwestern University Library's claim on these images is as invalid as Bridgeman Art Library's was on theirs. —Angr 11:08, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete - but only after sorting the PD'd ones out. --Lhademmor 13:04, 25 March 2007 (UTC)- Reword the template to indicate that post-1923 work had not their copyright renewed. -- Bryan (talk to me) 16:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
- The template is not valid in Germany and other countries with individual treaties with the US. --Rtc 17:15, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but I don't see how that is a problem for us. -- Bryan (talk to me) 15:14, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- It's just a remark that if the template should be reworded, then a warning as for {{PD-US-not renewed}} needs to be added. --Rtc 15:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Could someone with good knowledge of US copyright go through these ca. 100 images and tag the public domain images accordingly? Please! It would be nice if we could close this request soon. --ALE! ¿…? 11:34, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Kept – template modified to emit either {{PD-Art|PD-US}} or {{PD-Art|PD-US-not renewed}}, depending on the copyright year. If none is given, "not renewed" is the default. All image pages updated accordingly. PD-Art is included because of the Northwestern University's claims to a copyright on the digitizations. Lupo 21:45, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
