University Publishing: Public Domain Resources

Produced by Washington State University this rather eclectic list has some real gems - well worth investigating. Although the page lacks update information so that it's impossible to tell how fresh the links are, it seems to be well maintained at this point.

It not only lists public domain text sites, but also images and music.
