The Special Libraries Association of the New York Library Association are members of the Open Book Alliance.
…the Open Book Alliance released an extensive compilation of third party analysis of the revised Google Books Settlement. The wide-ranging consensus from a diverse chorus of voices is that the revised Settlement is barely distinguishable from the original Settlement and far from satisfying the major concerns of the Department of Justice and other objectors.
The post is divided into seven sections:
+ Overall Analysis
+ Continuing Anti-trust Concerns
+ FATE OF UNCLAIMED/Orphan Works
+ Copyright Infringement CONCERNS
+ COMPLETE LACK OF Privacy:
+ ABUSE OF Class Action PROCESS:
+ CONTINUING Foreign COMPLAINTS
