#Academic Publication question: say you are writing a review that involves really old papers (i.e. published <1950). Most of the papers you're citing were quite hard to obtain, but you managed to get access to them somehow so you have a scanned version of all of these.
Is there a legal / official way to provide a folder with all the cited papers together with your review once it's published? And by legal I mean a way that the journal that you're publishing in will be happy with?
If these were old enough they would probably fall into the public domain but I don't think they're old enough for that (this says copyright expires from the death of the author +70y: https://copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-duration.html#duration)
