\”The U.S. Supreme Court granted cert on Monday in the case of York Times v. Tasini, a case that concerns the copyrights of freelance writers with respect to electronic distribution of the papers they write for. The case specifically involves writers who write for newspapers and other general-interest works, rather than scholarly journals, but the implications of a decision in favor of the authors could have implications for libraries who purchase electronic database subscriptions. Libraries are staying out of it at this point, but you can be sure they\’re following with rapt attention.
