The Public Index: A Resource for Discussion
of Issues Related to the Google Book Settlement
The Public Index
<http://thepublicindex.org/>
"The Public Index is a site to study and discuss the proposed Google Book
Search settlement. Here, you can browse and annotate the proposed
settlement, section-by-section. Just use the table of contents or the
search box at the right to get started. In addition, you can:
Study our reading room of lawsuit documents
Join the conversation in our forums
Draft an amicus brief to the court on the wiki
The Public Index is a project of the Public-Interest Book Search
Initiative and the Institute for Information Law and Policy at New York
Law School. We are a group of professors, students, and volunteers who
believe that the Google Book Search lawsuit and settlement deserve a full,
careful, and thoughtful public discussion. The Public Index is a site for
people from all points of view to learn from each other about the
settlement and join together to make their voices heard in the public
debate.
The lawsuit and its proposed settlement have generated their share of
controversy. This is a site for everyone, dedicated to no particular point
of view other than the advancement of dialogue and understanding."

Because as of today this site has just been created, there is at this
point only a small amount of content thus far, but this is certainly a
site to watch over time as well as a place for interested persons and
groups to provide information and ideas in regard to the wide variety of
issues encompassed by Google Books and the Google Book settlement. Access
to important documents regarding this settlement is already provided by
this website.

These documents and sources are listed:
Google has a brief overview of the settlement on its site.
The Authors Guild has a two-page letter outlining the settlement for
authors.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has a readers guide to the settlement.

provisions:

Amicus Brief
Password Required
<http://thepublicindex.org/dokuwiki/doku.php>
"We've seeded the wiki with an editable draft of our amicus brief. This is
an open-source amicus brief; please edit and improve it! If we have facts
wrong, correct them. If there are stronger arguments we could make, help
us make them. If you have a sharper turn of phrase, share it. At the end
of the summer, we'll sit down with your changes and suggestions and roll
them into the brief that we file. Due to the rules of court we have to
obey, we can't promise that we'll file it exactly as-is, but we'll take
every good edit we can."

There is on all of my subject guides links to a great deal of information
about each Google search tool including Google Books and a large body of
information in quite a number of posts on Net-Gold about Google Books and
the other Google search tools. Here are some pertinent links.
