    There's been a spate of postings requesting copies of Law360 articles
    on law-lib lately. Our firm looked at these e-newsletters awhile ago
    and concluded the subscriptions were too expensive. Occasionally I will
    get a request from an attorney who gets the summaries.
     
    First, I wonder if people are checking the authors' law firm websites
    for copies of the articles - I've found a number of them that way.
     
    Secondly, I wonder how long it will be before the 360 publishers will
    pick up on this trend of librarians regularly requesting copies of their
    articles and raise copyright violation objections.
     
    I'm just saying...
     
    (hoping not too many people are on vacation and my email doesn't get
    jammed with out of office messages...)
