>Some readers may be interested in the recent report from the National
>Research Council titled "A Question of Balance: Private Rights and
>the Public Interest in Scientific And Technical Databases". This
>report, which builds on earlier work such as the 1997 "Bits of Power"
>report from the NRC and complements the study "The Digital Dilemma:
>Intellectual Property in the Information Age" (which deals primarily
>with copyright).
>
>The report is, or shortly will be, available at www.nap.edu, and is
>also available in hardcopy for purchase from National Academies Press.
>The report is also supplemented by a separate report of a workshop
>that was held as part of the development of "A Question of Balance",
>and my understanding is that the workshop report will be available
>ONLY online at <http://www.nap.edu/>.
