Subject: [LITA-L:1283] What would you ask Google and the Google Print
Libraries?

Hi all, 
I've changed the thread name of Bernie's posting because it reminded me
of something I have been meaning to post to this group. I am putting
together and moderating a program for Annual in Chicago on Google Print
and Google Scholar. The panel will consist of Google's product manager
for both Google Print and Google Scholar and project managers from each
of the libraries involved in the Google Print project (Harvard,
Stanford, Michigan, and NYPL are confirmed...still working on Oxford).
The first part of the program will be a presentation from Google,
followed by the panel discussion. I'm putting together a list of
questions to ask the panel and wanted to collect ideas on what kind of
questions are burning in people's minds. Any topic under the sun that
touches on what Google and the libraries are doing is game.

So, if you could ask one question of Google and all the libraries
involved in the project, what would you ask? (Okay, if you have more
than one I'll take everything you've got....) 
Thanks, 
Maurice 

PS--If you're interested in coming to the program, it will be on Monday
(June 27th) afternoon from 1:30-3:30, so take that into account when
making your travel plans. It should be a great program!
