Incidentally, my quote of the week passed on by Roger Geffen:
"policy-based evidence making." Oh yes, we know what that means
alright.

I have a cunning and devious plan, will pass on a copy if it arrives.

If someone were to buy a copy, and declare it to be the property
of the urc library, could it be circulated to members of that
library legally ? I can't see any notices about copyright on
the site so I don't know if library copies are priced differently.

There doesn't need to be any copyright notices. Copyright is intrinsic
and automatic. And no a urc library would not work otherwise people
would set up music libraries to legally share music with each other.

True, but some publishers apply a more draconian standard than others
(or attempt to : I don't know whether they have any right to do so).
If the conditions of sale are different from any other publication I
would want to know before I purchased.

At the risk of sidetracking the thread ..

They do, formally or informally. Friends lend each other their CDs. I
guess 'official' libraries may have some special status, but many
groups, for example, purchase OS maps from a common fund and lend them
to members. There isn't any reason for this to be either illegal or
immoral if only one map is actually in circulation and nobody takes
a copy : AFAIK copyright law restricts duplication, not use.

I'm interested in hearing what the report has to say, and would
consider making a contribution toward someone buying a copy (even if
they didn't lend it to me). If no-one does that and I can't locate
a copy elsewhere, I might buy it myself.
