Summary: Orphaned books or abducted books? Five U.S. universities are
being sued to prevent work from being uploaded and digitized.
.
A legal battle is under way between a coalition of writers and five major
U.S. universities, after the writers books were digitized without their
say so.
.
The Authors Guild and its equivalent organisations in Australia, Canada
and the UK, along with a large group of other authors, are suing the five
universities, including the University of Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana,
Cornell and the University of California.
.
The five universities allied with Google to digitize their books, in a bid
to make the same copies of books available to more students without
physically buying more books. Google partnered with these U.S. university
libraries also to gain access to the books and works that it wants to
digitize for its Google Books project.
.

.
HathiTrust, a named defendant in the case and a central core to the
ongoing lawsuit, helped the universities set up a digital archive of their
books. The repository was set up by the University of Michigan for student
and staff access of orphan works defined as out-of-print books whose
writers could not be found to ask or negotiate copyright.
.

.
The company is attempting to find out-of-copyright books, so called
orphaned works.
