> ###   PRESS RELEASE   ###
>
> A Working Group set up by the Publishers' Association (PA) and The
> Library Association (LA) is making good progress on forging an agreement
> for model licences to enable public libraries to make available
> electronic publications in a networked environment.  The Authors'
> Licensing and Collecting Society, the Copyright Licensing Agency, the
> Society of Authors, the Library & Information Commission, the Society of
> Chief Librarians, the Standing Conference of National and University
> Libraries and the Local Government Association are all represented on
> the Group, together with the PA and the LA.  The move was prompted by
> the recommendations to the government in the Library & Information
> Commission Report "New Library; the People's Network" that all public
> libraries in the UK should be networked.  The government has now
> responded positively to those proposals which gives added impetus to the
> work.  The group is building on the experience gained in libraries in
> the Higher Education sector.  It aims to achieve agreement on a set of
> model licences by mid-1998.  The Group is Co-chaired by Clive Bradley,
> former Chief Executive of the PA, and Ross Shimmon, Chief Executive of
> the LA.
> The full membership of the Group is:
> Edward Barrow (Copyright Licensing Agency)  secretary to the Group

in der frage, wer rolls royce bekommen soll, bin ich neutral.
aber die vickers-zentrale in londons millbank tower, nur wenige 
schritte von der tate gallery entfernt, war fuer einige jahre mein 
arbeitsplatz. vickers-zimmer, deren dokumentationsstellen in frankfurt, 
london und tokyo ich geleitet habe, gehoerte dem vickers-konzern.
