CopyCense: Quote of the Week

I just saw this in CopyCense (written by my colleague, K.M. Dames) and thought it was worth passing along:

Quote of the Week

"The British Library last week voiced its concern after it found that of 30 licensing agreements recently offered to the library for use of digital material, 28 were more restrictive than the rights existing under current copyright law. 'Our concern is that, if unchecked, this trend will drastically reduce public access, thus significantly undermining the strength and vitality of our creative and educational sectors,' Chief Executive Lynne Brindley said in a statement."
