It was founded by [[Carl Malamud]] and is based in [[Sebastopol, California]].

Public.Resource.Org takes particular interest in digitizing and making accessible the works of the United States Federal Government, which because of [[Copyright status of works by the federal government of the United States|US government licensing rules for its own work]] are almost always in the public domain. Major projects conducted by the organization include the digitizing and sharing of large numbers of court records, US government-produced video, and laws of various places.

== Operation strategy ==

Malamud works on the premise that information in the [[public domain]], and particularly government-generated information of this sort, ought to be as easy as possible for the public to access.<ref name="oreilly2007">{{cite web |url= http://radar.oreilly.com/2007/08/carl-malamud-takes-on-westlaw.html |title=Carl Malamud Takes on WestLaw |first=Tim |last=O'Reilly |authorlink=Tim O'Reilly |work=[[O'Reilly Media|radar.oreilly.com]] |date=19 August 2007 |accessdate=13 October 2013}}</ref> In doing this, he identifies interesting collections of information held by organizations which have failed to grant free public access to it.<ref name="oreilly2007"/> Two typical circumstances are that the creator of the information has failed to make it available online in any form, or that the creator has provided the information to a private company which itself charges fees for access to the information.<ref name="oreilly2007"/> At this point, Malamud acquires the free information himself, publishes it in public.resource.org as a free communication channel, and then demonstrates publicly that he has made information free when otherwise it would not be and calls for pressure on the holder of the information to collaborate in developing the information release.<ref name="oreilly2007"/>

== Projects ==

=== Access to IRS Form 990 in digital format ===

In 2013, Public.Resource.Org filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requesting copies of nine annual information reports ([[Form 990]], ''Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax'') in digital format for tax-exempt entities in MeF (modernized e-file) format. The IRS refused to provide the MeF files, claiming that the effort to edit them to conform to required privacy standards for the filers represented an unreasonable burden. On January 29, 2015, a U.S. District Court ruled against the IRS, requiring that the IRS provide the requested files within 60 days.<ref>{{Cite Pacer

=== Access to United States legal resources ===

In 2007 Malamud began publishing the full text of United States legal opinions dating from 1880 in an effort to begin a process intended to create a free publicly accessible database intended to hold the entirety of US Case law.<ref name="oreilly2007"/> Goals of the project included the creation of "an unencumbered full-text repository of the Federal Reporter, the Federal Supplement, and the Federal Appendix" and "an unencumbered full-text repository of all state and federal cases and codes."<ref name="oreilly2007"/> In describing this project, journalist [[Tim O'Reilly]] described this information to be "clearly public data" yet also "the crown jewels of public data available for profit", as companies including [[West (publisher)|West]] had collected billions of dollars in fees for granting access to this data.<ref name="oreilly2007"/>

Malamud called for increased awareness that Westlaw was a commercial broker of the United States Federal Reporter, Federal Supplement, and Federal Appendix.<ref name="oreilly2007"/> While Westlaw had been adding value to the content by indexing it with their proprietary [[West American Digest System]] and accompanying summaries, the purchase of their products was the only way to access much of the public domain material they hosted.<ref name="oreilly2007"/> Malamud began to distribute these materials for free while saying in an open letter to the company<ref name="oreilly2007"/>

{{Blockquote|... it seems fairly clear that a large part of the publication stream is tightly interwoven into the very substance of the operation of the courts, with West serving as the either contractual or de-facto sole vendor reporting on behalf of the court. ... You have already received rich rewards for the initial publication of these documents ... We wish to make this information available to (the public) ... It is crucial that the public domain data be available for anybody to build upon.<ref name="oreilly2007"/>}}

In 2010 Google awarded the project US$2 million in funding through their Project 10^100 challenge to submit ideas for changing the world.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/2m_google_grant_puts_aba_legal_rebels_struggling_legal_document_access_proj/ |title=$2M Google Grant Puts Struggling Legal Document Access Project in the Black |first=Martha |last=Neil |work=[[ABA Journal]] |date=24 September 2010 |accessdate=21 October 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/10-million-for-project-10100-winners.html |title=$10 million for Project 10^100 winners |first=Lorraine |last=Twohill |work=googleblog.blogspot.com |date=24 September 2010 |accessdate=21 October 2013}}</ref>

=== FedFlix ===

Public.Resource.Org collects old and forgotten United States government video, digitizes it, and distributes it for free online in a project called FedFlix. Video is purchased or requested from government agencies such as the [[National Technical Information Service]].<ref name="Badger2010">{{cite web |url= https://psmag.com/economics/fedflix-popularizes-uncle-sams-video-collection-23473 |title=Nonprofit Fedflix Smoothes Access to Federal Video Archive |first=Emily |last=Badger|work=[[Pacific Standard]] |date=30 September 2010 |accessdate=21 October 2013}}</ref> These videos are digitized and uploaded with [[metadata]] to [[YouTube]] and Public.Resource.Org's servers.<ref name="Badger2010"/> Most of these videos were produced with federal government funding and intended for educational purposes.<ref name="Badger2010"/> There is also a collection of videos from FedFlix at the [[Internet Archive]] which contains over 8,700 items.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://archive.org/details/FedFlix |title=FedFlix: Free Movies: Download & Streaming: Internet Archive |publisher=[[Internet Archive]] |accessdate=21 March 2014}}</ref>

YouTube's [[YouTube#Content ID|Content ID]] tool helps copyright holders make requests to remove their copyrighted videos from YouTube. Malamud has complained that large media organizations are using this tool to unfairly attack and call for the removal of Public.Resource.Org's upload of US federal government videos on the improper claim of their copyright over them, when in fact these works are purported by the US government to be public domain works.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2011/dec/12/pirates-of-youtube-cory-doctorow |title=The pirates of YouTube |first=Cory |last=Doctorow |work=theguardian.com |date=12 December 2011|accessdate=21 October 2013}}</ref>

=== Yes We Scan ===

"Yes We Scan" is a phrase used as a name for various Public.Resource.Org projects which have the goal of digitizing and making available large collections of documents.

In 2009 when [[Carl Malamud]] petitioned to become the [[Public Printer of the United States]] the campaign slogan was "Yes we scan!"<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.huffingtonpost.com/carl-malamud/yes-we-scan-why-i-want-to_b_170386.html |title=Carl Malamud: Yes We Scan: Why I Want To Lead The Government Printing Office |first=Carl |last=Malamud |work=huffingtonpost.com |date=26 February 2009 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref>

In 2011 Public.Resource.org submitted a "YesWeScan.org" proposal to the United States federal government petitioning system [[We the People (petitioning system)|We the People]] asking for the creation of a plan to scan all public federal government holdings.<ref name="yeswescan2011">{{cite web |url= http://blogs.archives.gov/aotus/?p=3965 |title=AOTUS: Collector in Chief – Yes We Scan Again! The Archives chats with voters on a "We the People" teleconference |first=David |last=Ferriero |authorlink=David Ferriero |work=blogs.archives.gov |date=6 February 2012 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref> [[David Ferriero]] responded to the petition describing efforts to increase availability of government archives.<ref name="yeswescan2011"/>

In 2013 Public.Resource.Org organized a fundraiser for a Yes We Scan project to collect, digitize, and make available all government [[safety standards]] in every country.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/publicresource/public-safety-codes-of-the-world-stand-up-for-safe |title=Public Safety Codes of the World: Stand Up For Safety! by Carl Malamud, Public.Resource.Org |first=Carl |last=Malamud |work=kickstarter.com |year=2013 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref> In 2010 Public.Resource.Org managed a smaller project to free the public safety codes in [[California]] in the United States.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://boingboing.net/2010/12/09/californias-safety-c.html |title=California's safety codes are now open source! |first=Cory |last=Doctorow |work=boingboing.net |date=9 December 2010 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref>

=== C-SPAN video licensing ===

In 2007 Malamud petitioned for more open access to some C-SPAN recordings.

[[C-SPAN]] is a private media company which records and broadcasts the discussions of the United States Congress.<ref name="Cohen2007">{{cite news |url= https://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/26/technology/26cspan.html?_r=0 |title=Which Videos Are Protected? Lawmakers Get a Lesson |first=Noam |last=Cohen |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=26 February 2007|issn=0362-4331 |accessdate=13 October 2013}}</ref>
The company's business model is to provide its recordings for fees to cable and satellite television broadcasters.<ref name="Cohen2007"/>

In February 2007, [[Nancy Pelosi]] was publishing on her blog as [[Speaker of the United States House of Representatives]] and inserted video clips from C-SPAN into her messages.<ref name="Cohen2007"/> Persons representing her opposing political party claimed that she was violating copyright in using the videos.<ref name="Cohen2007"/> C-SPAN investigated the situation and found that in some cases she was and in other cases she was not, and they clarified their position in the media.<ref name="Cohen2007"/>

C-SPAN confirmed that through more than 25 years of operating it had consistently asserted its copyright over all of the material which it created with its own cameras, which was 85-95% of its content.<ref name="Cohen2007"/> The rest of its content was produced on the House and Senate floors with government cameras, and this material was in fact public domain content as a work of the US federal government.<ref name="Cohen2007"/> A representative of C-SPAN said that "It is perfectly understandable to me that people would be confused ... (because the situation is that) when a congressman says something on the floor it is public domain, but (when) he walks down the street to a committee hearing or give a speech and (then) it is not public domain.<ref name="Cohen2007"/> The representative went on to say that "I think a lot of people don't understand (that) C-SPAN is a business, just like [[CNN]] is, ... (and) If we don't have a revenue stream, we wouldn't have six crews ready to cover Congressional hearings."<ref name="Cohen2007"/>

In 2007 Malamud petitioned for more open access to some C-SPAN recordings. [[Electronic Frontier Foundation]] credited Malamud's efforts and a letter to [[Brian Lamb]] of C-SPAN to their agreement in 2007 to make congressional recordings much more accessible.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2007/03/c-span-unchains-congressional-hearing-videos |title=C-SPAN Unchains Congressional Hearing Videos |first=Fred |last=von Lohmann |work=eff.org |publisher=[[Electronic Frontier Foundation]] |date=7 March 2007 |accessdate=13 October 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= http://boingboing.net/2007/03/01/dear-cspan-youre-not.html |title=Dear C-SPAN: you're not Disney, Congress isn't Mickey |first=Cory |last=Doctorow |authorlink=Cory Doctorow |work=[[Boing Boing|boingboing.net]] |date=1 March 2007 |accessdate=13 October 2013}}</ref>

=== Smithsonian Institution protest ===

In 2006 Malamud complained that private company [[Showtime Networks]] and the publicly owned [[Smithsonian Institution]] were entering a contract to establish [[Smithsonian Networks]] without sufficient public disclosure.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://radar.oreilly.com/2006/04/smithsonian-sunshine.html |title=Smithsonian Sunshine – O'Reilly Radar |first=Tim |last=O'Reilly | authorlink =Tim O'Reilly|work=radar.oreilly.com |date=5 April 2006 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref> Under the contract Showtime would be able to deny permission to other media producers wishing access to Smithsonian collections.<ref name="Wyatt2006">{{cite news |url= https://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/01/arts/television/01smit.html |title=Smithsonian Agreement Angers Filmmakers |first=Edward |last=Wyatt |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=1 April 2006|issn=0362-4331 |accessdate=20 October 2013}}</ref> Documentarian [[Ken Burns]] said of this deal "I find this deal terrifying ... It feels like the Smithsonian has essentially optioned America's attic to one company".<ref name="Wyatt2006"/>

=== Academic publishing ===

Public.Resource.org supports research to identify knowledge within the body of academic publications.<ref name="Pulla July 2019">{{cite journal |last1=Pulla |first1=Priyanka |title=The plan to mine the world's research papers |journal=Nature |date=17 July 2019 |volume=571 |issue=7765 |pages=316–318 |doi=10.1038/d41586-019-02142-1|pmid=31316198 |bibcode=2019Natur.571..316P |doi-access=free }}</ref> A profile in 2019 reported that the organization had collaborated with [[Jawaharlal Nehru University]] and [[Sci-Hub]] to gather a collection of research literature for use in [[data mining]].<ref name="Pulla July 2019"/> The project raised various ethical issues including the right to the public to share in knowledge versus the right of publishers to restrict access to their copyrighted works.<ref name="Pulla July 2019"/>

{{main|American Society for Testing and Materials et al. v. Public.Resource.Org}}
In 2013, Public.Resource.Org was sued by the [[ASTM International|American Society for Testing and Materials]], the [[National Fire Protection Association]], and the [[ASHRAE|American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers]] for scanning and making available [[building code]]s and [[fire code]]s which these organizations consider their copyrighted property.
