I was given wonderful resources and advice from the Mills Music Librarians when making sure the Yiddish songs you hear in this episode are old enough to be in the public domain, such as the Cornell guide to Copyright Term and the Public Domain . A huge thank you to Sherry Mayrent for donating her collection of Yiddish music, and all the librarians at Maryrent Collection of Yiddish Recordings and the Mills Music Library of Digital Collections for the work you do to ensure that we can enjoy these cultural treasures.
