Fact v. Fiction on the Google Book Settlement

As today’s House Judiciary Committee hearing gets under way, we have released a list of seven Fiction v. Fact issues that we urge the Committee members to address. As Open Book Alliance co-chair Peter Brantley said…

“There’s been a lot of questions about the nature of this settlement, and unfortunately, there remains some inaccurate information out there. We sincerely hope that today’s hearing helps clarify some of the facts about the settlement, and we encourage the members of the House Judiciary Committee to explore these areas in its questioning of Google and its partners.”
