Huh. They claim copyright of these records. I'd somehow thought:
1: The federal government can't hold copyrights
2: As purely factual data, catalog records are conceptually uncopyrightable
Anyone who knows more about this than I do know if they're *really*
copyrighted, or if it's more of a "we're gonna try and say they're
copyrighted and hope no one ignores us"?
Curious,
