Universal Memory year
Biography Library counts archive years from 2026 as Year 0 of Universal Memory (UM).
Year 0 UM
The UM year appears on publication dates, credits, the PDF colophon, and the site footer. It is never used for dates of a person’s life.
Factual metadata of every record (name, dates, places, coordinates, identifiers, and the structure of the form) are dedicated to the public domain under CC0, regardless of the content license the author chose.
