Ask HN: Is it legal to build an educational course on a specific book?
4 by caguama | 2 comments on Hacker News.
I want to build an online educational course on a specific book (written in the early 20th century) to help others consume the valuable content. I don't have plans to charge for the course, just build it and host it so others can benefit from it. I need to use the name of the book in my app to make it easier to find people who know about the book, but have never actually read it or absorbed its content. Do you think I am breaking any laws by calling it something like "Book X Educational Course" or similar?
