IrishGenealogyNews: Cork Archive releases headstone inscriptions recorded in 1957
The National Library of New Zealand signed an agreement with Internet Archive to donate 600,000 books that it was planning to cull from its overseas collection. Internet archive has agreed to make digital copies of the works freely available online.
About 50,000 books in the Overseas Published Collection have already been culled to free up space for New Zealand material in the library’s burgeoning storage facilities. Those books were given to libraries and other institutions, including a Lions Club, which sold many at a book fair. Excess books from the fair were passed on to booksellers.
While libraries have requested a further 10,000 books slated for de-listing, the rest would be physically shipped to America for long-term storage, via a digitization facility in the Philippines.
The archive has agreed to pay for packaging, transport and digitization costs, and the export had been signed off by the Ministry for Culture and Heritage under the Protected Objects Act.
The Internet Archive provides free access to collections of digitized material including websites, games, music, films and millions of books.
Internet Archive has, however, been embroiled in a court case where four major publishers, including three major United States publishers – HarperCollins, Penguin Random House and Hachette Book Group – allege the archive is engaged in “willful mass copyright infringement” regarding allegedly infringed works it’s published.
The Internet Archive agreed to remove any material from its library service at the request of any rights holders. The library would also attempt to contact publishers and authors using its “international networks” before shipping the books. Several book groups are lobbying to stop the cull.
