ABOUT THE LIBRARIES
NETWORK NEWS
On May 24, 1979 a cataloging record entered into the OCLC data base
_ by the University of Louisville received the system—assigned control
number 5000000. As numbers approached the six—million milestone on
February 19, 1980, a UK cataloger tried to duplicate the U of L's
feat.
In the Cata1oger's own words: "All afternoon new records were being
added to the system at the leisurely rate of 4-7 per minute. But,
when #5999900 was assigned around 5:30, there was an incalculably
rapid surge of activity. I started calling records out of the SAVE
area and SENDing as quickly as my panicked state allowed. I added
13 records in succession. (I had settled on a reserve of 13
deliberately, to defy the gods.) My first PRODUCE command, when I
looked back a couple of minutes later, had already been too late:
the record has been assigned #6000017. Close, but as Al McGuire
remarked during a recent Sunday afternoon basketball telecast,
'close' counts only in horseshoes and hand grenades."
OCLC #6000000, by the way, is a bibliographic record for a book by
John and Valerie Graves entitled Medical sound recording, and was
input by the Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse, New York.
ANGLO—AMERICAN CATALOGING RULES II

SEVEN PUBLISHERS SUE IN EFFORT TO HALT ILLEGAL COPYING
The use of photocopies instead of complete, original textbooks in
college classrooms has prompted a concerted campaign by publishers
for stricter enforcement of the federal copyright law.
With the backing of the Association of American Publishers seven
publishing companies last week filed suit against a commercial
photocopying business. The defendant is Gnomon Corporation of
Cambridge, Mass., which operates photocopying stores near university
campuses in Cambridge, Ithaca, N.Y., New Haven, and State College,
Pa.
The publishers charge that material from their publications were
copied without permission, in violation of the federal copyright
law that took effect in 1978.
Alexander C. Hoffman, chairman of the publishers’ association, said:
"We believe the evidence in this case is overwhelming, clear-cut
and unfortunately typical of a hugh volume of illegal copying that
goes on continually on campuses all over the country. Anthologies
are put together consisting of substantial portions that are stolen
not only from textbooks but also chapters from trade books and
articles from journals. These copied 'anthologies' are used
instead of the originals without permission or payment."
The copying involved at least an entire chapter or complete journal
in every case, and in many cases a third to half of an entire book
was photocopied. Most of the work was done for professors. Orders
usually were for 20 to 30 copies, depending upon the number of
students in the class.
