Subject: UCITA (formerly UCC Article 2B)

The Denver Post reported that the National Council of Commissioners on
Uniform State Laws passed the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act
(UCITA) 43-6 with two abstentions and two states not voting. You might
remember that UCITA was originally proposed to become Article 2B of the UCC.

UCITA would have sweeping inpacts on libraries--licensing is the big issue.

Now is the time to start working with your State Library Association on how
to react should this be proposed for adoption in your state.

There is a good summary at:
