OCLC and The Library Hotel Settle Trademark Complaint
<http://www.oclc.org/news/releases/20031124.htm>
DUBLIN, Ohio, USA, 24 November 2003OCLC Online Computer Library Center,
Inc. and The Library Hotel (New York, New York) have reached a settlement
agreement regarding the use of the Dewey Decimal Classification system
trademarks by The Library Hotel.
On Sept. 10, 2003, OCLC filed a trademark infringement complaint against
The Library Hotel in federal court in Columbus, Ohio. Under the settlement
terms, The Library Hotel will receive permission from OCLC to use the
Dewey Decimal Classification trademarks in its hotel and in its marketing
materials, with an acknowledgment that OCLC is the owner of the Dewey
trademarks. The Library Hotel will make a financial donation to a
non-profit organization that promotes reading by children.
We are pleased that this matter has been resolved so quickly, said Jay
Jordan, OCLC President and CEO. The agreement is a good outcome for both
the library cooperative and The Library Hotel. It permits the use of the
Dewey Decimal Classification trademarks at the hotel and in the hotel's
marketing materials and acknowledges OCLC's trademark rights.
