Announcement from Google
News on Google Book Search.
Google has come to an agreement today, October 28, 2008, with the The Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers, regarding the future of Google Book Search, which had been under litigation since 2005.
Google will make payments to establish the Book Rights Registry, "to resolve existing claims by authors and publishers and to cover legal fees" (See Announcement Link above).
Google claims this will expand institutional access to millions of online books via subscriptions.
