ASHLEY BELANGER, Ars Technica; Publishers beat Internet Archive as judge rules e-book lending violates copyright
Internet Archive: Judge’s copyright ruling is a “blow to all libraries.”
"On Friday, a US district judge ruled in favor of book publishers suing the Internet Archive (IA) for copyright infringement.
