[Libs-Or] Interesting piece: "I'm sorry, but I can't help you..."

Wed Aug 3 12:26:45 PDT 2011

Hi, all. Just a few points in response to Terry Mackey comments, "Google Books takes the issue to the next level.  Google is creating (has created?) the best library in human history and it is electronic.  The American Library Association did not create it.  That's a bit of a harbinger from the get-go."

As much as I love Google (I use it constantly), I do just want to mention few facts when it comes to the Google Books project.

Google did not write the books. Authors did. Google is merely scanning them.

Google did not do any of the copy editing, peer review, layout, illustration or indexing. Scholars (often for free as a public service and from a sense of duty to their disciplines and younger colleagues), copy editors, and skilled people in the publishing industry did.

Google did not purchase the books or preserve them for decades. Libraries did.

Google did not fund all those years of curation. Taxpayers and donors did.

What Google wants to do (and this is all still being litigated) is scan all that material, probably slap ads on it for public consumption and also sell it back to libraries, which would then have to go hat in hand to taxpayers and donors again for the right to gain access to what was theirs in the first place.

Google is only now working with authors and publishers because they didn't take kindly to its attempt to unilaterally deprive them of their rights while presenting an act of copyright infringement on an unprecedented, gargantuan scale and outright larceny as largesse on behalf of the greater good. They sued Google.

I believe in Open Access very strongly, but Google should not be presented as the white knight of free and unfettered access to the world's knowledge. It has its place, but it has also operated in a very secretive fashion with a few libraries and locked out of the discussion many others.

Not to mention the concerns about whether or not its scanning process (which it also refused to discuss openly) might have damaged the items it was scanning.

Hope Leman

Hello,

Google Books takes the issue to the next level.  Google is creating (has created?)the best library in human history and it is electronic.  The American Library Association did not create it.  That's a bit of a harbinger from the get-go.

Of course, soon Google will sell access to libraries.  We'll probably see the same effect with print books that we've experienced with magazines and journals: as aggregators added titles actual library subscriptions were canceled.

In addition to libraries, it makes sense for Google to sell access to their library to everyone who has a cell phone, or cable.  I'd pay an extra $10. month to have access to the best library in human history, wouldn't you?

Some people won't have computers at home, or in their pocket.  Perhaps they will go to the library to read.  That may become a library's reason for existance.

Good point but the cost of the reader pales compared to the cost of feeding it.
And worse: no library can afford what it cannot buy.  The core problem in this exchange is that publishers may not want to sell e-content to libraries for normal library use, period.
That bodes the end of what we do.
What can we do about that?

Interesting, indeed.  Unfortunately, we have many tiny, grossly underfunded public libraries here in eastern Oregon, who literally cannot afford to purchase even one e-book reader for staff or public use.

Don?t believe it?  Peruse the statistics available from the State Library.  You might find it hard to understand how anyone can run a library on such minimal funding.

Even the comparatively well-off libraries in this end of the state are almost poverty-stricken compared with libraries serving similar populations on the west side.

It?s not that the residents here are cheapskates.  They simply have much lower average incomes than their counterparts west of the Cascades.

This is the latest message from the ALA Washington Office about how you can
be a library advocate this summer.

----------------------------

** **

** **

Now that the debt ceiling crisis has been ?resolved,? library supporters
need to focus on how we save funding for crucial library programs like the
Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) and school libraries. There will
be deep financial cuts resulting from the debt agreement and we must work to
show why library finding is not the place to make these cuts. Here?s how you
can help in the month of August:****

* *

*Step 1: *Contact your member?s district office to see if they have any town
hall meetings coming up. You can find contact information for your
Congressional representatives at this site: http://capwiz.com/ala/home/****

** **

*Step 2: *Think of examples and stories of how your local library provides
essential services to your community. Emphasize how these services are free
to users and of a minimal cost to taxpayers. Show your elected officials how
cutting library funding hurts the community, especially in this tough
economy. The ALA Washington Office has resources for you to use. ****

?Advocating in a Tough Economy Toolkit,? click
here<http://www.ala.org/ala/issuesadvocacy/advocacy/advocacyuniversity/index.cfm>
****

** **

*Step 3: *Attend a town hall meeting to share stories and information with
your elected official. As a bonus, you will not only be informing your
official but also other citizens in the audience who may not know about all
the resources a 21st century library can provide.****

** **

*Step 4: *Invite your elected official to visit a public or school library
to show them firsthand the services libraries offer. The following resources
can help you set up your meeting:****
