The majority opinion says (at 1994 WL 590563, *11):
"When a corporation invites such archival copying by
circulating items likely to be worth copying (whether
articles or entire books), any distinction between
individual and institutional archiving loses all
significance."
Starting tomorrow, I will be routing only those
publications that are of absolutely no interest
whatsoever to my attorneys., thus delivering them
from temptation.
BTW, the opinion cites an interesting article that
librarians may want to get a legit(legitimate) copy of:
Smit, "Make a Copy For the File ...: Copyright Infringement
by Attorneys." 46 Baylor L. Rev. 1 (1994).
I also recommend pp. 33-39 of this article to anyone
who's still interested in the public-domain-federal-caselaw-
database issue.
