01 Sep '04

Dear Friends: I wish to bring the following advt to the attention of LIS-Forum members. Normally I desist forwarding (Routine) Job vacancies because there are better paper based avenues open to us. However this specific advt calls for TEN posts of Librarians at Junior level-- therefore it is interesting.

Please DO NOT send resumes to me! I have nothing to do with Career Network either.

scanning books and copyright laws
by Byrappa, Ananda (Research) 31 Aug '04

31 Aug '04

Anuradha, Copyright law does not allow you to scan the books even for academic and research purpose. You need to take written permission from the publisher/copyright holder to digitize any book. Its unlikely that you get a permission from them. As an alternative, you may want to consider online books like knovel, netlibrary, e-brary, 24/7 etc for subscription. Again they may not fill your requirements as these e-book models are still evolving (slowly!) There are security methods to control accessing digital documents. For example, British Library(BL), London is recently started using 'secured document delivery' method for their electronic document delivery service. Which allows end users to access the document only one time. You may wish to visit BL website for more details Regards, Anand ________________________________________ Ananda T.
