Richard Charkin, Public Libraries and Google

May I draw readers attention to Richard Charkin's blog this morning.

The matter of Google is particularly interesting and informative;you can see from Richard's explanation, the very serious questions that are being raised that affect a publisher's need to protect the copyrights of their authors and writers. I'm in the curious situation - (actually as we all are) of needing them both. There is a veritable bear pit into which one fears to tread-- I wonder how it will look in a hundred years time.

There is also a good debate going on about public libraries

Readers and librarians (and the many people who are both!) might like to look at the Google Debate sponsored by EPS in London, too: http://googledebate.epsltd.com/
