Sources and credits
Teddy Rook Book is built on the work of many people: old schoolbooks and the libraries that scanned them, museums that share their pictures, scholars who publish open data, and the makers of free fonts and code. This page names them all, with their licences. Pages that use outside material also show their own sources at the bottom, under "Sources and credits".
