Why is it even interested in all those out-of-printlibrary books, most of which have been gathering dust on forgotten shelves for decades? Thecompany claims its motives are essentially public-spi

6、rited. Its overall mission, after all, is to organisethe worlds information, so it would be odd if that information did not include books.The company likes to present itself as having lofty aspirations. This really isnt about making money. We are doing this for the good of society. As Santiago de la

7、 Mora, head of Google Books for Europe, puts it: By making it possible to search the millions of books that exist today, we hopeto expand the frontiers of human knowledge.Dan Clancy, the chief architect of Google Books, does seem genuine in his conviction that thisis primarily aphilanthropic(慈善的) ex

In a recent essay in theNew YorkReview of Bo

T

The inconvenient fact about mostbooks, to which Google

13、 has arguably paid insufficient attention, is that they are protected bycopyright. Copyright laws differ from country to country, but in general protection extends for theduration of an authors life and for a substantial period afterwards, thus allowing the authors heirs to benefit. (In Britain and
