February 05, 2009: An Important Message to all Publishers, Authors and Heirs of Authors about the Google Settlement

This settlement has the potential to affect every copyright owner in Canada. It is important to read the following message and inform other copyright owners that you know.

The Google Settlement is a proposed landmark settlement to lawsuits brought against Google separately by book authors, the Authors Guild, and publisher representatives of the Association of American Publishers alleging that the scanning/digitization of books for its Google Book Search program infringed copyright in the United States.

Access Copyright is involved in the proposed settlement by working closely with a U.S. firm that is implementing the class action notice program.

PWAC encourages all writers to read the full notice about the settlement, which has detailed information about the settlement, important terms, the claims process, and key dates. Want to know more first? Read this article prepared by Access Copyright to understand why you should care about the Google settlement. Additional information can be found at www.accesscopyright.ca.
