'For the past five years, Kyle K. Courtney, who directs copyright and information policy for Harvard’s libraries, has fought to make e-books more accessible to public libraries across the United States.

Most e-books have digital rights management software that means, like print books, they can only be checked out by one person at a time. But unlike print books, which can sit on library shelves for decades, e-books are often sold on time-limited contracts — meaning public libraries must buy them again after several years or, in some cases, several months. The costs can add up quickly.

Courtney, a lawyer by trade, believes that the strict contract terms are “undermining every library’s mission across the United States.”

“We can’t own our books. We can’t preserve them. We can’t keep them. We can’t check them out without having to pay for the same book over and over and over,” Courtney said. “And that’s problematic for collection development, for access, for budget, for all sorts of things.”' thecrimson.com/article/2025/9/

John Fogerty looks back over the years when he was fighting for his songs, and sighs. “The best way I can describe it is I was imprisoned wrongfully and sent away to the penitentiary for many, many years.” theguardian.com/music/2025/aug

'Concord now owned the Creedence catalogue, and had no desire to make an enemy of their signing. Almost immediately, it reinstated the royalties Fantasy had previously withheld, and it was open to selling Fogerty his songs. It took a further 19 years, but it did happen, and Fogerty was delighted. “This is something I thought would never be a possibility,” he tweeted in January 2023. “After 50 years, I am finally reunited with my songs.”'
