Public Domain Collections

SteveMoody · 31 December 2020, 19:03

I've brought down a large pile of floppy disks down from storage in the attic which I'm going to start sorting through in the next few days.

I have quite a few disks from public domain collections and was wondering if full or even partial sets of these are available anywhere. I did a quick google search and didn't see anything.

I can create images from the disks I have here if anybody is interested but it would be nice to be able to get more of the colllections.

I have not seen any full PD library collections anywhere. I did see a post on EAB where a member had a CD with a full PD library on, but I do not think they were willing to share. Most of the PD software is probably available on Aminet.

It would be interesting to choose one biggest PD libraries and recreate the library. I guess this would need the last catalogue disk.

Actually you never know which files can be contained in a disk

This means you can find intros or cracked single filed games anywhere
