While the public
authorities slept, Google
Book Search took the initiative to create the
largest library and the largest book business that have
ever existed. Four years ago, Google,
the world's top search giant, started digitizing books
from the libraries of Harvard, Stanford, the University of
Michigan, the University of Oxford, and the New York
Public Library and making the digital surrogates available
on the Internet. As of November 2008, Google had scanned
about 7 million books through a partnership with these
libraries. In exchange, Google has promised to give each
library a single free terminal for patrons to read the
books, but not print or copy any of the works. For broader
access, libraries would have to pay an institutional
subscription fee that has not yet been determined.
In September and October
2005, a group of authors and publishers brought a class of
action suit against Google, alleging violation of
copyright. Last 28 October 2008, after lengthy
negotiations, the opposing parties announced agreement on
a settlement, which is subject to approval by the US
District Court for the Southen District of New York. The
settlement creates an enterprise known as the Book Rights
Registry(BRR) to represent the interests of
the copyright holders. Google will sell the access to a
gigantic data bank composed primarily of copyrighted, out
of print books digitized from the research libraries.
Google will retain 37 percent, and the BRR will
distribute 63 percent of the access fee among the right
holders. [Darnton, R. 2009. May 5, 2009]
Initially it is displaying
only bibliographic information and a few snippets of books
still in copyright. For books in the
public domain, you will actually get to page through the
full text on Google Book
Search.
Our readers are requested
to browse Google Book Search and reap the maximum
benefit from it. |
