* I am linking to the same thing at the regular Amazon site, and at AmazonSmile. When you shop at AmazonSmile, half a percent of your purchase price on eligible items goes to a non-profit you choose. It will feel just like shopping at Amazon: you’ll be using your same account. The one thing for you that is different is that you pick a non-profit the first time you go (which you can change whenever you want)…and the good feeling you’ll get.
Shop ’til you help! 🙂

Hi Bufo-
Would love to see an annual write up each January on new public domain materials!

Thanks for writing, Nancy!
It’s an interesting idea. I did do one last year, which was the 1st year in a while that we had a year matter for that. It’s an interesting idea…if I can squeeze one in during the next week or so, I will.
