Connecticut House Passes Landmark eBook Bill
Kyle K. Courtney [he is a lawyer for libraries] spotlights the eBook Study Group, a national coalition of legal and policy experts focused on fair digital access for libraries, who applaud the 106–38 passage of long-awaited legislation by the Connecticut House of Representatives that will make eBook licenses more consistent with the library mission and better serve library users across the state. This effort is a benchmark for libraries and advocates in jurisdictions throughout the country who are battling restrictive licensing terms imposed by publishers.
