Hi, James. You can submit clearances up to 2 years early. Our copyright system at https://copy.pglaf.org handles it: you can get an "ok" key, but cannot upload until the year it is eligible. I thought this was documented somewhere, but did not see it just now. So, there is no reason to wait for a clearance key, for something that will be eligible in January. Thanks! - Greg On Sun, Oct 06, 2019 at 05:44:40PM +0000, James Adcock wrote:

I would say (Greg to confirm/deny) that it's OK to submit such clearances, but perhaps wait until November. Maybe mention in one of the notes-to-clearance-team fields that the finished ebook won't be submitted to PG until Jan/2020.
DPCanada has a similar general policy.
DPCanada/Fadedpage (https://www.fadedpage.com/<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fadedpage.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C5c6b680390d8490ec14f08d74a836fbb%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637059800681271384&sdata=NvJgdeHUKwM0RXBM7q7SOK71hdCpEuTscxUH%2BcnQ%2F0E%3D&reserved=0>) should also be checked, just in case the book is already there. (DPC follows Canadian copyright law, not American.) DPC has a copyright clearances spreadsheet (similar to David Price's In-progress list) at:
Green entries are projects that have been posted to Fadedpage; black ones are active DPC projects. (Be patient--the sheet can take a bit of time to load and respond.)

I seem to remember that you start accepting clearance requests a bit ahead of time -- end-of-year 2019 look-ahead for "2020" [1924] items?
When can we start submitting clearance requests for "2020" [1924] items -- realizing that these don't actually "clear" until 2020?
Thanks, jimad
