Bibliographic and Transcription Limitations
Ebooks in this catalogue are drawn from historical sources and may contain inaccuracies, outdated language, or cultural depictions that reflect their era. Transcriptions are prepared with care but may contain errors. We do not guarantee that every text is complete or that transcriptions are error-free. Editorial notes and reading guides represent the views of the catalogue project and are offered for discussion, not as definitive scholarship.
Copyright and Public-Domain Status
We strive to include only works that are in the public domain in the United States and in many other jurisdictions. However, copyright laws vary by country. It is your responsibility to verify the legal status of any work before using it in your jurisdiction. Some works may still be protected by copyright in some countries. Where we include editorial commentary, introductions, or annotations, those elements may be protected by copyright and are offered for personal use only.
User Responsibility
You are solely responsible for your use of the site and any content you access. You must comply with all applicable local, national, and international laws. We are not responsible for how you use the materials found here.

The site may contain links to third-party websites or resources. These are provided for convenience only. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites. Accessing them is at your own risk.
Technical Availability
We aim to keep the site available and accessible, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. The site may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or factors beyond our control. We may modify or discontinue any feature or content without notice.
Editorial Notes and Presentation
Editorial content—including reading guides, background notes, and category descriptions—represents the opinions and research of the catalogue project, EQIZI Catalogue. These are provided to enrich your reading experience and are not intended as definitive literary criticism. We may update or remove editorial material at any time.

If you believe that any material on the site infringes your copyright or other rights, please contact the catalogue project at [email protected] with sufficient information to evaluate your claim. We will respond promptly and take appropriate action, which may include removing the material.
Warranty Disclaimer
The site and all content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will meet your requirements or that it will be secure, error-free, or free of harmful components.
Limitation of Liability
In no event shall the catalogue project, EQIZI Catalogue, or the Historical Children’s Library be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. This limitation applies to all claims, whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory.
Suspension of Abusive Access
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the site for any user who violates these terms or engages in abusive, disruptive, or unlawful behavior. This includes, but is not limited to, excessive automated requests, harassment, or attempts to compromise the site’s security.
Service Changes
We may change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the site at any time, including content, features, or availability. We will attempt to provide notice of significant changes, but are not obligated to do so.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
