Publishers Weekly Survey on Google Books Settlement

Thanks to Judith Trotsky, one of the co-objectors to the freelance settlement (Reed Elsevier v. Muchnick), for this information from Publishers Weekly:

With a September 4th deadline looming to opt out of or object to the Google Book Search Settlement, PW is conducting a survey designed to gather a broad view of how the Settlement is being viewed.

We urge you to take a few minutes to answer this brief, targeted questionnaire to help us gauge industry opinion on whether the settlement should be approved, modified or rejected. Note that you do not have to have standing in the suit to participate in the survey.

Please click on the link below when you are ready to take the survey.

Results of the survey will be shared in the August 24th issue of PW. If you have questions or comments about the survey, please contact Laura Girmscheid, PW Research Manager at lgirmscheid@reedbusiness.com.

Thank you for participating!
