: Research done by Ksmail and copied from the supervisor's forum:
An example of writing becoming public domain is "If" by Rudyard Kipling. : The work was created and first published before January 1, 1923, or at least 95 years before January 1 of the current year, whichever is later; : The last surviving author died at least 70 years before : January 1 of the current year; : If either of these are met a work becomes public domain. : The poem inthis example was written in 1910. This meets the first requirement. Kipling died in 1936 meeting the requirement of the second condition. (Note both do not need to be met just one)
