German
football latest to threaten YouTube
The Times, Technology, November 3
Bayern Munich, the German football club, has joined the raft of copyright owners to
threaten YouTube with legal action over pirated material. The move comes as Google, which
has agreed to buy the video-sharing site for $1.65 billion, urgently attempts to protect
the site from a wave of potentially crippling legal action.
Linking Up
Bibliographies: DOI Harvesting Tool Launched by CrossRef
Information Today, November 6
Authors, editors, publishers, and librarians all have a vested interest in supporting
the widest dissemination of digital scholarship, particularly authoritative and
“authorized” copies of scholarly publications. CrossRef (www.crossref.org), the
reference-linking network of the Publishers International Linking Association (PILA), has
launched a free DOI look-up feature called Simple-Text Query (www.crossref.org/freeTextQuery).
Users can enter whole bibliographies with citations in almost any bibliographic format and
receive back the matching Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for these references to insert
into their final bibliographies.
