Thank you for your considered response.

Point well taken. My lack of knowledge and experience in this field is  
glaringly apparent.
However, I do find it difficult to grasp the concept of blaming the  
library for the books.
i.e. The Vatican didn't, to my knowledge, string up Galileo's vellum  
binder*.
I really can't foresee a way to manually screen each upload,  
especially given the potentially huge,
international scope of your library. I hope there does not come a day  
when images of prophets become chic.

Here is a link (found)via Google images legal dept. that I thought  
might help.

... and I did notice, since my last post, that OCAL does carry
some 'no' (C) & 'no' TM icons. My humblest apologies to the webmaster.

*Well, it's not really a pun.. is it?
Lurking mode back on.
