James Murdoch: Surprised By Schmidt, Search Sites Should Give Us Answers | paidContent:UK

21 May, 2010 by Einar Thorsen Leave a Comment

    James Murdoch dislikes British Library’s newspaper scanning:

    “This is not simply being done for posterity, nor to make free access for library users easier, but also for commercial gain via a paid?for website.

    The move is strongly opposed by major publishers. If it goes ahead, free content would not only be justification for more funding, but actually become a source of funds for a public body.

    We’re very concerned about some of the approaches that are being taken.”
