Libriaians: Growl Kick Bite...

Please keep in mind, I have no idea what I'm talking about. That said, I don't think that this is as big a problem as the European librarians may think it is. My guess is that Google is not trying to be imperialistic, but is just finding a starting point. Eventually it will all be online. Most computer users (with the exception of those using computer for porn downlods) want access to things that aren't easily accessible in other mediums. It will only be a matter of time before someone sitting in their home in Idaho would say, "Gee, I like to find out more aoubt French literature." The internet is like an information buffet. Each person has the opportunity to find what they want. If they can't find it, that gives someone like Google an opportunity to provide it and strengthen their place on the internet.

But once again, I firmly state that I don't know what I'm talking about. I could have missed the whole point that the Euro-brarians are making.
