El Center for the Study of the Public Domain de la Universidad de Duke acostumbra publicar las obras registradas que entraron al dominio público este 2023.
Esto solo aplica para los Estados Unidos porque la protección de Derecho de Autor o de Copyright varía en cada País, por ejemplo en México las obras entran al dominio público cien años después de la muerte del autor.
