Google, authors and publishers recently entered into a
settlement agreement in The Authors Guild et al. v. Google Inc.,
a class action lawsuit brought against Google in connection with its use
of copyrighted books in its Book Search feature, and in The
McGraw-Hill Companies et al. v. Google Inc., a separate lawsuit by
publishers. The settlement, if approved by the court, will provide new
opportunities for authors and publishers to market their works. It will
also enhance the public’s ability to search for books and to get partial
text displays (and, in the case of many older works, full text displays)
at home, at school, and in libraries. At the same time, the settlement
may have significant implications for copyright law, competition,
research and scholarship.
