Digitized for the 2026 public domain celebration: Bibo, Bobette, “Hello Everybody!” (1930). 

We have only just finished celebrating public domain 2026 with digitized volumes from the libraries’ collections, but there is no time like the present to prepare for public domain 2027!  We’ve scoured our catalog records to find the rarest titles we have that will be falling into the public domain in 2027, based on publication date.

We want your input on which titles from the list we should add to the USF Libraries’ Digital Collections; 27 titles for 2027! Vote for up to 27 titles from those below:
