We investigate when the direct sum of semi-projective modules is semiprojective. It is proved that if R is a right Ore domain with right quotient division ring Q = R and X is a free right R-module then the right R-module Q ⊕ X is semi-projective if and only if there does not exist an R-epimorphism from X to Q.
