BBC NEWS | Americas | US objects to Google book deal .
I’m not sure why I’m linking to a BBC article on this considering it’s a super-heated topic here in the states but…I just go with the flow, I guess.
I’ll add links soon, but there is so much discussion about whether this is good or bad, different groups taking different sides, official statements from universities (ie – not just publishers on one side, but institutions on the other facing off).
Some interesting stuff:
From Feral Librarian:
- Stanford’s Amicus Brief
- Perspective from a New Zealander
- Stanford sets the suit in motion
- Very timely – the DOJ files a “Statement of Interest,” which Chris has nicely summarized
More to come, hopefully, for more context
