Summary

Based on Gemini research into redistribution-friendly Hebrew handwriting sources.

New high-priority candidates:

  • openn__katz_center_judaica — CC0, bulk rsync/FTP, Katz Center Judaica hundreds of items
  • nypl__hebrew_manuscripts_digital_collections — PD, public API, Ketubbot + manuscripts
  • loc__hebrew_manuscripts_collection — PD (US govt entity), JSON API

Rejected with evidence:

  • bl__hebrew_collection — commercial reuse restricted; paid permissions required
  • cambridge__digital_library_hebrew_genizah — same restriction (note: we already have Cambridge T-S items via Wikimedia Commons where rights are confirmed)

Research note: docs/sources/gemini_summary_2.md
