Yesterday, the Copyright Alliance filed an amicus brief before the Second Circuit in the Google Books case (Authors Guild v. Google), in support of Authors’ Guild. The Copyright Alliance believes the undisputed gains made possible by mass digitization can and should be attained without sacrificing the public benefit inherent to the creation and dissemination of works that copyright encourages. Special thanks to new Legal Advisory Board member Davis Wright Tremaine LLP for drafting this brief.
