UK Moves Forward with Plans for Central Library Where Anyone Can Borrow
In Great Britain, readers would be able to borrow books from any library
in the country, under Conservative plans for a national library card.
Every member of a local library would be entitled to the card, which
could be used in all of Britain's 4,500 public libraries. The card is
one of a set of Tory measures designed to "rejuvenate the country's
public library service".

The Acquiescence of Google
By Blogger: Tawny Sverdlin
For the last four years Google has been digitizing millions of books
from the collections of major research libraries and making the texts
researchable online. For the last two years the company has been
enmeshed in a legal dispute with copyright holders. Finally, a
settlement has been reached between the plantiffs and Google that will
create an enterprise known as the Book Rights Registry to represent the
interests of the copyright holders.

into the nation's library. This summer the Library of Congress, home of
the U.S. Copyright Office, is once again offering special 10-week, paid
internships to college students.
