Publishers Appeal GSU Copyright Case

"Following their second district court loss in eight years of litigation, the publisher plaintiffs in Cambridge University Press vs. Patton (known commonly as the GSU e-reserves case) have again appealed the case.

In an August 26 notice of filing, the publishers confirmed that they will ask the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Atlanta to review Judge Orinda Evans’ March 30 verdict against them, as well as “all prior orders and rulings” in the closely watched copyright case, which involves the use of digitized course readings, known as e-reserves, common on college campuses."
