Google's Library Project runs into more trouble; Indian Publishers' turn now

Google’s plan to digitize books through its ambitious ‘Library Project’, has hit a new roadblock with Indian publishers accusing the internet giant of copyright violations. The Indian Reprographic Rights Organization (IRRO), a copyright society incorporated in 2000 to license books and other publications’ reproduction rights has filed a suit against Google in the Court of the Southern District of New York in the United States of America, alleging copyright infringement of several books published by Star Publications, Abhinav Publications, Daya Publication House and Pustak Mahal, amongst others.
