I have been trying to keep up to date my website favourites. I first tried doing this using favourites and bookmarks in web browsers. These soon became unmanageable, so I tried to provide a comprehensive links page on pages on my website. Again this soon became unmanageable

So - plan C!

http://del.icio.us/leetoone

Have a look here and let me know what you think. I can index sites and it makes it easier to find things. If it works I can add sites that people recommend and I had thought that I might be able to rebadge it as del.icio.us/ancientcoinsites or something like that if it works.

Happy to receive any comments or suggestions.

Lee

Nice job. I've bookmarked it and plan to use it.

Thank you.

leetoone · « **Reply #2 on:** November 02, 2007, 04:21:02 pm »

I've just added a few more sites, including some of members of these boards. Again, any suggestions for further additions, let me know.

Great idea and excellent work. I have bookmarked your site as well.

Alex.

A few more sites added including an impressive one on Military Diplomas. Not strictly numismatice but of interest to many of us I'm sure.

Don't forget to send me any links you think might warrant a place in the list.

Best wishes

Hi, you can add mine : http://www.fredericweber.com/cotations_index

... and use my links page too : http://www.fredericweber.com/cotations_liens.htm

leetoone · « **Reply #7 on:** November 10, 2007, 11:38:58 am »

It's added Frederic! I'll gradually work through the links pages.

Thanks a lot,

Lee

I have a french forum that you can add too, only for ancient coins : http://fredericweber.grafbb.com/index.htm

Wow et français voulez-vous

Merci. Tu es le bienvenu sur mon forum si ça te dis !

Very nice work! You might want to add these sites for Asia Minor issues:

Isegrim database (anonymous login):
http://hist3-10.phil-fak.uni-duesseldorf.de/isegrim/anmelden.html -- see the brief user's guide at
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=44094.msg276771#msg276771

Waddington, Recueil General (all four published fascicles):
http://www.people.virginia.edu/~jdk3t/RG

leetoone · « **Reply #12 on:** November 13, 2007, 11:41:18 am »

Thanks

Have added the Isegrim link.

But the HT link to Waddington only allowed me to access1/4 from here in the UK. I'll have another look at it later!

archivum · « **Reply #13 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:01:57 am »

Thanks; that hitch with the Waddington links is surprising -- it works fine for me in Explorer and Firefox. Hoping you have the same luck, Sincerely, archivum

leetoone · « **Reply #14 on:** December 14, 2007, 09:50:49 am »

Several more sites added including an impressive one on the Vindolanda Tablets - a complete searchable catalogue. Not strictly numismatice but of interest to many of us I'm sure.

Don't forget to send me any links you think might warrant a place in the list.

Best wishes

The Waddington link is to Google Books. They limit access to IP's outside the United States because of the varying copyright issues in different countries. They just don't want to take a chance on violating a country's copyright, and don't want to spend the money on doing the research to make sure they don't violate a country's copyright.

I do live in the United States, but because where I live has an Asian IP address, I can't access Google Books either.

archivum · « **Reply #16 on:** February 03, 2008, 08:27:20 am »

Of course if a full text is now in Google Books you can ask a US friend to download the whole thing and re-post it, and then you can download it too.

esnible · « **Reply #17 on:** February 03, 2008, 09:32:39 am »

Google is over-restrictive on copyrights outside the US. If you are pretty sure you can legally access the material feel free to use a US-based proxy service to view Google books. For example, go to http://proxyguy.com/ and type "books.google.com" into the "Surf Now!" box. You'll get US access.

The main problem is that US copyright law makes most books published before 1909 public domain here. In other countries, most books don't become public domain until 75 years after the death of the author. So you must find out when the author died before you can ethically use Google Books from your country.

I've never been able to figure out the law for things like magazines and journals that present the work of multiple authors. Do we have any European copyright experts here? Are they considered joint works that become available 75 years after the last author dies? Or may web sites block access on a per-author page-by-page basis?

archivum · « **Reply #18 on:** February 03, 2008, 11:27:45 am »

I'm no copyright expert, but W. H. Waddington was deceased (*feu*) as of 1904, so the 75-year rule in his case should not be a problem.

esnible · « **Reply #19 on:** February 03, 2008, 03:30:15 pm »

William Henry Waddington died in 1894. _Recueil Général_ was published in 1904, ten years after his death. It was published before the US copyright law of 1909 respected European works, and I'd guess it is 100% public domain in the US.

_Recueil Général_ was completed by Ernest Babelon (died 1924) and Théodore Reinach (died 1928). The joint authorship laws in most of Europe means Recueil Général becomes public domain 75 years after the last author dies, so in Europe this book would still have been under copyright five years ago.

archivum · « **Reply #20 on:** February 04, 2008, 07:04:31 am »

Thanks! That makes it clearer why Google Books might have been cautious about open world-access to Waddington's book, but at this point there's no legal reason not to access the book via proxyguy.

Hi,

It's such a shame that even using a proxy server you can only get to see three out of four volumes of Rec. Gen.

-- Which brings us back to

http://people.virginia.edu/~jdk3t/RG/

for the fourth RG fascicle, certainly not a great reproduction, but quite a bit better than none.

leetoone · « **Reply #23 on:** February 25, 2008, 05:20:36 pm »

Just found this site. Has a number of ebooks on the site and also seems to publish and sell numismatic books. Mostly in French but looks very interesting. Have added the link to it on http://del.icio.us/leetoone but here it is as well.

Enjoy

I have some books in that serie, there are very interesting and well done. One of my bests are the three volumes about Trajan's column, very well illustrated, interesting even if you don't read french.
