HACHETTE VS INTERNET DECISION IMPACT: FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE LOSES APPEAL, COPYRIGHT UPHELDRESTRICTING RIGHT TO COPY BOOKS THEY OWN

WPCNR WHITE PLAINS LAW JOURNAL. From WikIpedia. September 5, 2024:

 

Hachette Book Group, Inc. v. Internet Archive, No. 20-cv-4160 (JGK), 2023 WL 2623787 (S.D.N.Y. 2023), is a case in which the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York determined that the Internet Archive, a registered library, committed copyright infringement by scanning and lending complete copies of books through controlled digital lending mechanisms.

Stemming from the creation of the National Emergency Library (NEL) during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, publishing companies Hachette Book Group, Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, and Wiley alleged that the Internet Archive’s Open Library and National Emergency Library facilitated copyright infringement.

The case primarily concerns the fair use of controlled digital lending (CDL) of complete copies of certain books.

The case does not concern the display of short passages, limited page views, search results, books out of copyright or out of print, or books without an ebook version currently for sale.[1]

On March 25, 2023, the court ruled on the case.[2]

In August 2023, the parties reached a negotiated judgment, including a permanent injunction barring the Internet Archive from lending complete copies through CDL of some of the plaintiffs’ books.[3]

The Internet Archive appealed the decision but it was upheld by the appellate court in September 2024.

THE GREENBURGH STUDENT NEWS NETWORK DEBUTS

WPCNR THE LETTER TICKER. From Paul Feiner, Greenburgh Town Supervisor. September 5, 2024:

 

ANNOUNCING A NEW MONTHLY NEWS PROGRAM PRODUCED BY STUDENTS

THE GREENBURGH STUDENT NEWS NETWORK

Blake Feinstein, a Junior at Edgemont High School, is starting the Greenburgh Student News Network (GSNN), a monthly show airing on Cablevision and online. He plans to build a team of high school student reporters, writers, editors, and film crew members from throughout Greenburgh. Students would also take on leadership roles of producer and director for each episode.

The student team will collaborate to plan topics for each episode. Filming will take place in studio (Greenburgh Town Hall) and on location. Students will be able to conduct interviews and report on local news, school, sports, and community activities. The show will embrace various student viewpoints, including controversies.

A SAMPLE OF THE KIND OF NEWS STORY THAT GREENBURGH STUDENT NEWS WILL REPORT ON

LAST WEEKENDS GREENBURGH DIAPER DASH (watch 2-minute video)

Blake recently reported on the Greenburgh Diaper Dash and produced this two minute video: https://youtu.be/GjwqFWXWG2s?si=GjfjGoDI5H5fUL7j

The TV show would include this kind of segment, as well as other features like longer interviews and student discussions.

“The student perspective is usually absent from local news, but students are an important part of the community with concerns and interests,” Blake explains. “I want to create an engaging show that serves the community by sharing student viewpoints, while giving opportunities for students to grow their film, reporting and writing skills.”

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN JOINING THE GREENBURGH STUDENT NEWS NETWORK TEAM?

If you are interested in joining the team or learning more, please email Blake at [email protected]. The first GSNN team meeting will take place in mid-September at Town Hall.

Greenburgh Town Supervisor
