Thanks for uploading File:Topekalibrary.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case. Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you.

Hello, I see that you have re-uploaded this file. As it was previously published at Flickr, please send a formal release to COM:OTRS. Unfortunately, the file is licensed CC-BY-NC-SA-2.0 at Flickr, and we don't allow "non-commercial only" works. Because there is no proof that whoever registered here at the Commons under the handle "Davidleeking" (might be anyone) is indeed a representative of the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library, we require such formal confirmation for previously published works if the licenses do not agree. The permission should come from a tscpl.org e-mail address and should mention exactly which image(s) it applies to. I hope you understand. Lupo 16:38, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the info - I just sent that email from my tscpl.org account, with the copyright statement requested. Hopefully, this will clear everything up.
