Questia Gets Big Time Publicity

\”Take a look at the April 30, 2001 issue of Time magazine. On page Y17 (special bonus section \”YOUR BUSINESS\”) has a story titled \”You\’ve Got Books\” E-libraries Want to Reinvent Term Papers.\” Questia and its plan to offer an electronic alternative to libraries is the main subject of the story, though e-brary and NetLibrary are mentioned. The story makes Questia sound like the greatest invention since sliced white bread. I find it annoying that the story completely overlooks the amazing strides academic libraries are making in creating digital libraries, and no academic library leaders were interviewed for the story. However, some might say the story is just a fluff piece to put the spotlight on one more dot-com enterprise. Still, my letter to editor is on its way. \”
