- File:LA County Librarian, Skye Patrick.jpeg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by MJR212 (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
No OTRS ticket to verify release; the LA Library website states that all website contents are under an all-rights-reserved license. —C.Fred (talk) 17:48, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- I don't quite understand all the red tape here with this image. It was approved months ago and LA County Library has authorized me to use it for this post. Additionally, it was set for the public domain. If this is all invalid for some reason, can I get some help getting this image passed? MJR212 (talk) 17:53, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- @MJR212 Where on the LACL website does it say that this image is in the public domain? —C.Fred (talk) 17:56, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- It was authorized for this use via email from the LACL marketing director. If this is not good enough, what else can be done? MJR212 (talk) 18:01, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- That's what I said about the OTRS ticket: I don't see where a volunteer has received the email and noted that the donation is accepted. —C.Fred (talk) 18:02, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- should I copy in the email here then? MJR212 (talk) 23:33, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Please also see the file history for the image where it says plainly that This work has been released into the public domain by its author, LA County Library. This applies worldwide.

- In case this is not legally possible:
- LA County Library grants any entity the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law. MJR212 (talk) 23:37, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- @MJR212 Third parties cannot donate the work on the rightsholder's behalf, nor can we accept a third-party's copy of an email. The donation would need to come directly from LACL; they would need to email the Volunteer Response Team directly. —C.Fred (talk) 00:29, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
- ok, what about this:

- @MJR212 There is no way to verify that claim. The license at the library website contradicts that claim. —C.Fred (talk) 00:50, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
- Look, what do I need to do to get this image back up? I promised my client (the Library) I would post this for them and have ample proof. This image was up for months until today for some reason. I'm just trying to do my job here--nothing dishonest, and I honestly don't know why this is so difficult. I went through all the hoops already I thought. MJR212 (talk) 00:58, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

The file appears on Crack Comics, but lacks a fair use rationale for that page. Lizardcreator (talk) 22:42, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
