J.A. Chevalier - CON F IDE N T I A L
A. So as I describe in the report, as
I've discussed, locating rights holders is a
very, you know, as Dr. St. Clair reports,
locating rights holders is a very difficult and
costly process.
If you're referring to an
organization where book rights holders, you
know, provide, you know, register or provide
their books, I think there are already, I think
there are already mechanisms in the marketplace
for book rights holders who want to, you know,
who want to -- I don't, I think the problem is
the rights holders who cannot be found, largely
speaking, or the rights holders who, the orphan
works problem.
And the thing you're describing to me
does not solve the orphan works problem.
Sorry, I don't, I cannot, since I
can't tell you whose need would be met, it's
hard for me to tell you why it doesn't fill an
unmet need.
The product you describe, I can't, I
cannot figure out whose need would be met by
that product.
1 J.A. Chevalier - CON F IDE N T I A L
2 how an entity that relies on the active
3 depository of rights with it, would solve unmet
4 needs of libraries in the short run.
5
Q. I'm not just talking about libraries.
6
What about unmet needs of Google, if
7 that was the only way it could get the books?
8
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, incomplete
9
hypothetical, foundation.
l O You may answer.
11
A. So I guess I -- in this case, as
12 opposed to the case I cite in the footnote, I
13 don't quite see the service -- that the source
14 of the efficiencies are not apparent to me.
15
Q. Well, AMCAP and BMI -- ASCAP, excuse
16 me, and BMI, were created because the rights
17 holders had a legal copyright interest; correct?
18
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, foundation.
19
You may answer.
20
A. So my understanding is that ASCAP and
21 BMI arose -- yes, so the rights holders, yeah,
22 the composers, mostly, yes, or the rights
23 holders, yes, as I say in my report.
24
Q. Right, so it's not just that there
25 were problems of widely disbursed rights holders
Page 187
1 J.A. Chevalier - CON F IDE N T I A L
2
Q. Well, what about the need of
3 copyright owners to obtain compensation for the
4 digitization of their books?
5
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, foundation.
6
You may answer.
7
A. So as I've said in the report, I
8 don't think, I don't think there are a body of,
9 for example, libraries or other entities, with
lOan interest in digitizing books, who are willing
11 to pay for licenses for less than the full text
12 of books.
13
And if this product helped those
14 libraries, let's say, find the copyright
15 holders, it might be valuable.
16
But if it, ifit doesn't solve that
17 problem, I don't think it would be --it wouldn't
18 meet an unmet need of a buyer.
19
Q. What if it, what ifthe collective
20 licensing organization created efficiencies for
21 entities like libraries and others who are
22 trying to get rights to use books?
23
A. So it may be the case that some
24 entities could create some efficiencies, but I
25 don't -- I think what I'm saying is I don't see

the issue that the rights holders had a right to
withhold the music users from listening to their
works; right?
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, incomplete
hypothetical, lacks foundation
significantly.
You may answer.
A. Sorry, so my understanding is that
the purpose of ASCAP and BMI was that rights
holders, you know, deposit their rights with
AS CAP and BMI, and AS CAP and BMI provide an
efficiency by tracking down and monitoring the
disbursed rights users on the other side.
Q. Do you understand that ASCAP and BMI
arose after music users attempted to use music
without paying royalties?
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, foundation.
You may answer.
A. I don't know exactly. I don't know
the history of AS CAP and BMI that completely.
My understanding is that, you know,
that these disbursed rights holders were
required to pay for the music that they were

performing, and that ASCAP and BMI served the
intermediary function of negotiating and
transacting with those disbursed rights holders.
Q. SO you don't know the genesis of it
beyond what you said here?
A. I know that ASCAP and BMI are a
solution -- are a solution to the economic
problem of disbursed rights holders.
I don't know that much more about the
history than that. Sorry, disbursed rights
holders and disbursed users.
Q. Right, but there would be no problem
to solve from the perspective of the music
users, if they didn't have to pay for the use of
the music; right?
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, foundation,
calls for legal conclusion.
A. So my understanding is that, yes, the
users -- that the purpose of ASCAP and BMI, is
to track down the users and get them to pay.
Q. Because what they're using is
copyrighted music?
MR. McGOWAN: Same objections.
A. So my understanding is that the user

A. So I think as I've described in my
report, what I said in my report is absent the
existence of Google Books, I do not believe a
market for snippet display would arise. That's
the opinion I express in my report.
Q. But you're not expressing the
opposite?
A. So I'm surely not expressing the
opposite of the opinion in my report, but what's
the -- what is your question?
Q. You're not expressing the opinion
that if Google, we have -- Google Books now
exists?
A. Yes.
Q. And if a court detennined that Google
could not legally display snippets, are you
expressing an opinion about whether or not
Google, as a matter economics, would enter into
a license to display snippets?
MR. McGOWAN: Objection, incomplete
hypothetical.
You may answer.
A. So I'm not expressingan opinion
about whether Google would enter into licenses

2 -- my understanding is that the users have to
3 pay because the performance rights are a right
4 that has, it has been determined by some, by a
5 court that users of music, in these
6 circumstances, have to pay.
7
But the full scope of when users of
8 music have to pay, etcetera, you know, is
9 factually fairly complicated.
10
Q. But you would agree that music users
11 wouldn't be paying unless they had to; right?
12
A. I am sure some music users would be
13 paying, you know, if they didn't have to.
14
But the point of ASCAP and BMI is to
15 make sure they all pay, to collect from them.
16
Q. SO ifit was determined that Google
17 could not display snippets without permission
18 under the copyright laws, are you expressing an
19 opinion about whether a market would or would
20 not develop for Google to pay for the use of the
21 materials necessary for them to produce the
22 snippets?

DEFENDANT GOOGLE INC.’S RESPONSES AND OBJECTIONS TO
PLAINTIFFS’ FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES
A-911
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1053-9
Filed 08/03/12 Page 34 of 52
Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26 and 33, Defendant Google Inc.
(“Google”), by its attorneys, hereby responds and objects to Plaintiffs’ First Set of
Interrogatories (the “Interrogatories”) dated March 14, 2012.
These responses are based on the information currently available to Google. Google
reserves the right to amend, supplement or modify its responses and objections at any time in the
event that it obtains additional or different information.
GENERAL OBJECTIONS
1.
Google objects to the preface, instructions, and definitions to the Requests to the
extent that they purport to impose obligations that exceed those imposed by the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure, relevant local rules, and applicable case law. In responding to these requests,
Google has followed the applicable law and has ignored the improper preface, instructions, and
definitions.
2.
Google objects to the Requests in their entirety and to each request to the extent
that the documents and information sought are protected from discovery by the attorney-client
privilege, the work-product doctrine, or any other applicable privilege.
3.
Google objects to each and every request to the extent that it seeks information
that is confidential and/or proprietary information. To the extent not otherwise subject to
objection, Google will provide such confidential information in accordance with the terms of the
protective order entered in this case.
4.
Google objects to Plaintiffs’ definition of “Google” as vague, ambiguous,
unintelligible, and overly broad. For purposes of responding to these discovery requests, Google
will interpret “Google” to mean Google, Inc. and/or its agents.

RESPONSES AND OBJECTIONS TO INTERROGATORIES
INTERROGATORY NO. 1:
Identify all factual and legal bases supporting Google’s defense that its digital copying in
libraries of Books in their entirety is a fair use under 17 U.S.C. § 107, including without
limitation all facts Google intends to rely on with respect to the four factors set forth in Section
107.
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 1:
Google objects to this interrogatory to the extent it calls for attorney-client privileged
information, attorney work product, or information protected by any other privilege or immunity.
Google objects to this interrogatory’s use of the term “digital copying in libraries of Books” is
vague and ambiguous, and understands it to refer to Google’s digitization of Books from library
collections. Google objects to this interrogatory to the extent it seeks more than “the claims and
contentions” of Google, as permitted by Local Civil Rule 33.3(c). Subject to and without
waiving these objections, Google responds as follows:
Google’s digitization of Books from library collections is a fair use under 17 U.S.C. §
107. Specifically:
x
The “purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial
nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes,” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o The purpose and character of Google’s use is transformative, because it adds
something new, with a further purpose or different character, and does not merely
supersede the objects of the original.
The purpose of Google’s use is to assist users in identifying Books which
may be of interest by creating a search engine by which the text of Books
may be searched.
2
A-913
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1053-9
Filed 08/03/12 Page 36 of 52
Google’s digitized copies do not serve as a substitute for Books, but rather
are necessary to create Google’s book search engine, which is a new tool
for finding books.
o The nature of Google’s use is at least partially noncommercial, because the use
facilitates access to the collections of libraries, enables research and scholarship,
and does not directly generate revenue for Google.
x
The “nature of the copyrighted work” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o All of the Books at issue have been published.
o Some of the Books at issue are factual in nature, and as to those Books, this factor
tilts more strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are less factual in nature, and as to those Books, this
factor tilts less strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are out of print, and as to those Books, this factor tilts
more strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are in print, and as to those Books, this factor tilts less
strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
x
The “amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as
a whole” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Because the use is transformative, and the use of the whole is necessary to the
transformative purpose of creating a search engine by which the text of books
may be searched so that books of interest may be identified, the digitization of the
entire work does not militate against a finding of fair use.

A-914
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1053-9
x
Filed 08/03/12 Page 37 of 52
The “effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work”
weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o A search engine is not a market substitute for a book.
o The effect of the use on the traditional market for the sale of Books is positive,
because it enables the creation of a search engine by which the text of books may
be searched so that books of interest may be identified.
o There is no market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search
engine by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may
be identified.
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be
identified is not a traditional market.
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be
identified is not a reasonable market.
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be
identified is not a market which is likely to be developed.
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be
identified is a transformative market, and is thus not cognizable.
x
Balanced in light of the purposes of copyright, the four factors favor fair use.
o Each factor either favors fair use or is neutral.
4
A-915
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1053-9
Filed 08/03/12 Page 38 of 52
o A finding of fair use promotes the purpose of copyright, which is to promote the
dissemination of knowledge by granting limited exclusive rights to authors.
Google’s use promotes the dissemination of knowledge, by assisting users in
identifying books which may be of interest, while not serving as a substitute for
the Books themselves.
In addition, Google’s use is fair because it is necessary to the fair use purpose set forth in
Google’s response to Interrogatory No. 3. Google reserves the right to make different or
additional contentions for the purpose of rebutting Plaintiffs’ contentions. Pursuant to the
agreement of the parties, Google is willing to meet and confer in good faith in the event Plaintiffs
require additional details regarding the contentions identified herein.
INTERROGATORY NO. 2:
Identify all factual and legal bases supporting Google’s defense that its distribution to
libraries of entire digital copies of Books is a fair use under 17 U.S.C. § 107, including without
limitation all facts Google intends to rely on with respect to the four factors set forth in Section

RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 2:
Google objects to this interrogatory to the extent it calls for attorney-client privileged
information, attorney work product, or information protected by any other privilege or immunity.
Google objects to this interrogatory to the extent it seeks more than “the claims and contentions”
of Google, as permitted by Local Civil Rule 33.3(c). Subject to and without waiving these
objections, Google responds as follows:
Google does not distribute entire digital copies of Books to libraries. Rather, Google
makes available to libraries an automated system, called GRIN, by which a library may choose
to create and download digital copies of Books which have been scanned from its collection. A

library performs the volitional acts which result in the creation of the digital copies which are
created by the GRIN system and which result in the transmission of the content of those digital
copies to that library. Accordingly, Google can be at most liable under doctrines of secondary
liability, and cannot be directly liable for the library copies.
Google is not secondarily liable with respect to the library copies. First, Google is not
secondarily liable with respect to the library copies under any theory of secondary liability
because there is no underlying act of direct infringement by the libraries, since the libraries’
volitional acts in creating and downloading the library copies are fair use, not infringement.
Second, Google is not vicariously liable because vicarious liability requires a financial benefit
directly attributable to the particular infringing activity, and Google does not derive any financial
benefit directly attributable to the library copies. Third, Google is not liable under a theory of
contributory liability because (1) the GRIN system has at least substantial noninfringing uses; (2)
the libraries were and are contractually bound to use the GRIN system only in a noninfringing
manner; and (3) Google lacks knowledge of any use of the GRIN system which is infringing, as
opposed to fair use.
The libraries’ volitional acts in creating and downloading the library copies are fair use
under 17 U.S.C. § 107. Specifically:
x
The libraries’ use is in part for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting,
teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research.
x
The “purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial
nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes,” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.

o The purpose and character of the libraries’ use is transformative, because it adds
something new, with a further purpose or different character, and does not merely
supersede the objects of the original.
One purpose of the libraries’ use is to assist users in identifying books
which may be of interest by creating a search engine by which the text of
books may be searched.
The libraries’ digitized copies do not serve as a substitute for Books, but
rather are necessary to create the libraries’ book search engine, which is a
new tool for finding books.
o The nature of the libraries’ use is entirely for nonprofit educational purposes.
x
The “nature of the copyrighted work” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o All of the Books at issue have been published.
o Some of the Books at issue are factual in nature, and as to those Books, this factor
tilts more strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are less factual in nature, and as to those Books, this
factor tilts less strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are out of print, and as to those Books, this factor tilts
more strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
o Some of the Books at issue are in print, and as to those Books, this factor tilts less
strongly in favor of a finding of fair use.
x
The “amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as
a whole” weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.

o Because the use is transformative, and the use of the whole is necessary to the
transformative purpose of creating a search engine by which the text of books
may be searched so that books of interest may be identified, the digitization of the
entire work does not militate against a finding of fair use.
x
The “effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work”
weighs in favor of a finding of fair use.
o A search engine is not a market substitute for a Book.
o The effect of the use on the traditional market for the sale of Books is positive,
because it enables the creation of a search engine by which the text of books may
be searched so that books of interest may be identified.
o There is no market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search
engine by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may
be identified or for the creation of a “dark archive.”
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be
identified or for the creation of a “dark archive” is not a traditional market.
o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be

o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine
by which the text of books may be searched so that books of interest may be

be developed.

o The market for a license to scan Books for the purpose of creating a search engine

Balanced in light of the purposes of copyright, the four factors favor fair use.
o Each factor either favors fair use or is neutral.
o A finding of fair use promotes the purpose of copyright, which is to promote the
dissemination of knowledge by granting limited exclusive rights to authors. The
libraries’ use promotes the dissemination of knowledge, by assisting users in
identifying books which may be of interest, while not serving as a substitute for
the Books themselves.
Google provides this response as a courtesy to Plaintiffs, and the burden of proving
infringement (be it direct or secondary) remains with Plaintiffs. To the extent Google performed
any volitional act with respect to library copies, which Google denies, Google’s conduct was fair
use because it was necessary to the foregoing fair use purposes and was conducted at the behest
of the libraries expressly for the purpose of achieving the foregoing fair use purposes. Google
reserves the right to make different or additional contentions for the purpose of rebutting
Plaintiffs’ contentions. Pursuant to the agreement of the parties, Google is willing to meet and
confer in good faith in the event Plaintiffs require additional details regarding the contentions
identified herein.

books to be copied. Clancy Dep. at 14, 211 (Zack SJ Decl. Ex. 16).
29.
Google has used this technology to copy the entirety of over twenty million
books. See id. at 30; Declaration of Daniel Clancy in Support of Google Inc.'s Opposition to
Plaintiffs' Motion for Class Certification (hereinafter "Clancy Decl.") ~ 4 (Zack S1 Decl. Ex. 21).

In exchange for access to a library's print books, Google distributes digital copies
of the scanned books to the contributing library. See Print-out from
http://support.google.comlbookslhinlanswer.py?hl=en&answer=43751 ("Each library will
receive a digital copy of every book we scan ... from their respective collections.") (Zack S1
Decl. Ex. 22); Clancy Dep. at 44-45 (Zack S1 Decl. Ex. 16).
31.
To carry out its scanning en masse, Google set up scanning facilities in Mountain
View, California, where Google is headquartered, as well as in Ann Arbor and near Boston.
Clancy Dep. at 180-81 (Zack S1 Dec!. Ex. 16).
32.
For some libraries, Google undertook "selective scanning," which entailed a
library identifying a collection or set of books, and Google determining which books it had

and to "increase efficiency." !d. at 185-86.
33.
The "selection" process identified in No. 32 above was unrelated to the content of
the book. Id. at 187.
34.
Google engaged in "bulk scanning," with libraries providing "carts of books" for
Google to scan. Id. at 15,103.
35.
Google's scanning operations involved approximately three hundred scanning
machines, and reached an annual budget of $30 to $40 million for the scanning alone. Id. at 8485, 179.
36.
Some libraries (e.g., the New York Public Library, Harvard, Columbia, and
Princeton) allowed Google to scan only public domain works, while others (e.g., the Universities
of California, Michigan, Wisconsin, Cornell, University of Virginia, CIC, Stanford, and Texas)
allowed Google to scan in-copyright works as well. See generally Library Agreements (Zack SJ
Decl. Ex. 23); Clancy Dep. at 19 ("Harvard, New York Public Library, Columbia, and I believe
Princeton is only providing us public domain.").
37.
A "large number" of independent contractors - "on the order of hundreds" -
served as Google's scanning operators who performed the physical scanning, often working five
to six days per week, two shifts per day. Clancy Dep. at 14, 181 (Zack SJ Decl. Ex. 16).
38.
In scanning up to four million books per year, Google's contractors did not make
any judgments concerning a book's content. Id. at 182-83.
39.
Google copies every book its library partners provide, regardless of content,
unless (a) Google determines that it already has or will copy the book from another library; (b)
the book is physically not fit to be copied; or (c) Google has received a specific request from a

PUBLIC VERSION
PLAINTIFFS’ RESPONSE TO
DEFENDANT GOOGLE INC.’S LOCAL RULE 56.1 STATEMENT
Pursuant to Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Rule 56.1(a) of the Local
Rules of the Southern District of New York, Representative Plaintiffs Betty Miles, Joseph C.
Goulden, and Jim Bouton, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, and
Associational Plaintiff The Authors Guild, Inc., submit the following response to Defendant
Google Inc.’s Local Rule 56.1 statement (ECF No. 1033).
1.
Research libraries house millions of books. Decl. Dan Clancy Supp. Def. Google
Inc.’s Mot. Summ. J. (“Clancy Decl.”) ¶ 3.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted.
2.
Most books included in the Google Books Library Project are academic works.
Clancy Decl. ¶ 3.
RESPONSE: Controverted. The term “academic” is undefined and vague in the context
of this statement, there is no factual basis for Clancy’s statement, which refers to works in
unspecified research libraries in general rather than books included in the Google Books Library
Project, and the statement otherwise lacks foundation and any factual basis.

Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1071
Filed 08/26/13 Page 2 of 30
3.
Most books included in the Google Books Library Project are non-fiction. Brian
Lavoie and Lorcan Dempsey, Beyond 1923: Characteristics of Potentially In-copyright Print
Books in Library Collections, 15 D-Lib 11/12 (2009), available at http://www.dlib.org/
dlib/november09/lavoie/11lavoie.html.
RESPONSE: Controverted. The cited reference does not support the paragraph as the
article “characterizes the aggregate collection of US-published print books in WorldCat,” an
online collective library catalog, and does not purport to undertake any analysis of books actually
included in the Google Books Library Project.
4.
Most books included in the Google Books Library Project are out of print. Clancy
Decl. ¶ 3; Decl. Stephane Jaskiewicz Supp. Def. Google Inc.’s Mot. Summ. J. (“Jaskiewicz
Decl.”) ¶ 4.
RESPONSE: Controverted. There is no factual basis for Clancy’s statement, which
refers to works in unspecified research libraries in general rather than books included in the
Library Project, and Jaskiewicz’s statement refers to “Google Books” in general, which
encompasses both a “Partner Program” (under which Google displays portions of books with
rightsholder permission), see Plaintiffs’ Statement of Undisputed Facts in Support of Their
Motion for Summary Judgment, ECF No. 1054 (“Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt.”) ¶¶ 15-24, and a “Library
Project” (where Google copies, distributes, and displays books without permission), id. ¶¶25-85.
5.
All of works in the Google Books corpus were published. Decl. Joseph C. Gratz
Supp. Def. Google Inc.’s Mot. Summ. J. (“Gratz Decl.”) Ex. 3, Plas.’ Resp. Obj. Def. Google
Inc.’s 1st Set Interrogs. No. 1 at B(1).
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “All of the
works in the Library Project corpus were published in print form.” Additionally, the statement is
irrelevant as stated. The only relevant corpus is the Library Project, as Google Books includes
both a Partner Program and a Library Project (as differentiated in response to Paragraph 4,
above).

6.
The Google Books corpus contains novels, biographies, children’s books,
reference works, textbooks, instruction manuals, treatises, dictionaries, cookbooks, books of
poetry, and memoirs, among other works. Jaskiewicz Decl. ¶ 4.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, the statement is irrelevant as stated. The only
relevant corpus is the Library Project, as Google Books includes both a Partner Program and a
Library Project (as differentiated in response to Paragraph 4, above).
7.
Beginning in the late nineteenth century, libraries indexed books using index
cards, which recorded some bibliographical information and classified the book under a handful
of subject headings chosen by librarians. Decl. Gloriana St. Clair Supp. Def. Google Inc.’s Mot.
Summ. J. (“St. Clair Decl.”) Ex. A ¶ 40.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “From the
late 19th century through the first half of the 20th century, libraries used small index cards stored
in file drawers. These cards recorded some information about a book-its title, author, publication
date and publisher, and three or four general subject headings.” See St. Clair Decl. Ex. A. ¶ 40.
8.
In the second half of the twentieth century, the gradual digitization of card
catalogues allowed library users to perform electronic searches for the names of authors and to
search within a book’s title as well as a few subject fields per book. St. Clair Decl. Ex. A ¶ 41.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. By way of further response, libraries use MARC records
as electronic versions of card catalogs, which generally contain “Author, title, publishing
information, typically two or three subject headings and some kinds of notes about additions and
so forth.” Declaration of Joanne Zack in Support of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Summary Judgment,
ECF No. 1053 (“Zack Decl.”) Ex. 36, St. Clair Dep. at 48:4-9.
9.
Electronic card catalogue searches do not allow a user to search for information
not tied to the author, title, or one of the specific subject fields. Gratz Decl. Ex. 1, Courant Dep.
Tr. 96:16-97:2.
RESPONSE: Controverted. The deposition testimony cited does not refer to “author,”
“title,” or “subject” fields, and the deponent refers to only the possibility that full text searching
3
A-952
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1071
Filed 08/26/13 Page 4 of 30
will lead to results (referring to “subject matter that might not be apparent”) that differ from
those using the card catalog. Gratz Decl. Ex. 1, Courant Dep. at 96 (emphasis added).
10.
Google Books allows a user to search the full text of the Google Books corpus
using a query of the user’s own design. Clancy Decl. ¶ 7.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad
inasmuch as it refers to Google Books generally and not the Library Project (see response to
Paragraph 4, above).
11.
A search for “Archimedes” using Google Books locates many thousands of books
in less than one second. Clancy Decl. ¶ 7.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “A search
for ‘Archimedes’ using Google Books locates many thousands of books in less than one second,
according to information provided by Google in connection with its display of search results.”
However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as it refers to Google Books
generally and not the Library Project (see response to Paragraph 4, above).
12.
A search for Archimedes using Google Books returns the most relevant books in
the Google Books corpus that contain any reference to Archimedes. Clancy Decl. ¶ 7.
RESPONSE: Controverted. The phrase “most relevant books” is undefined, subjective,
and vague in the context of this statement, and searches using Google Books return results that
may not be pertinent to the user. For example, a user who searches for books about the
mathematician “Archimedes” will locate the book, ARCHIMEDES AND THE SEAGLE: A NOVEL, by
David Ireland.

Additionally, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as it refers to Google
Books generally and not the Library Project (see response to Paragraph 4, above).
13.
The ability to search electronically the full text of books can be achieved only by
digitizing the full texts of those books. Gratz Decl. Ex. 1, Courant Dep. Tr. 96:16-97:2; Gratz
Decl. Ex. 2, Aiken Dep. Tr. 104:7-105:2.
RESPONSE: Controverted in part as stated and as overbroad. The term “digitizing” is
undefined and vague. To the extent the term implies that the ability to search electronically the
full text of books can only be achieved by all of the conduct Google has undertaken with respect
to the books in the Library Project, including the copying, retention, display, and distribution of
.jpeg or other image files of the pages of books, the statement is denied. For example, the ability
to search electronically does not require the retention or display of full or partial images of pages
of a book as opposed to optical character recognition (OCR) text files. See generally Declaration
of Michael J. Boni in Support of Plaintiffs’ Opposition to Defendant Google’s Motion for
Summary Judgment (“Boni Decl.”) Ex. 7,

15. A book is scanned at one of a small number of scan centers. Clancy Decl. ¶ 6.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted.
16.
Physical access to the scan centers is limited to Google employees and
contractors. Clancy Decl. ¶ 6.
RESPONSE: Controverted in part as incomplete. It is uncontroverted that Google’s
policy is to limit access to its scan centers to its employees and independent contractors.
However, the statement is incomplete inasmuch as it obscures the fact that the overwhelming
majority of the individuals—“[o]n the order of hundreds”—who have access to the scan centers
are independent contractors, not Google employees. Zack Decl. Ex. 16, Clancy Dep. at 14.
17.
Decl. ¶ 3.
Images of the book pages are stored in a secure manner for processing. Jaskiewicz
RESPONSE: Controverted in part. The phrase “secure manner” is vague and
ambiguous as neither the statement nor the declaration cited in support of the statement describes
the steps to secure the stored images of book pages. It is uncontroverted that Google intends to
store these images in a secure manner. However, Google is not immune from design flaws and
security breaches. See Zack Decl. Ex. 39, Edelman Report ¶¶ 27-35. Additionally, Google
recognizes the risk of a security breach. See Zack Decl. Ex. 13, Google 2011 Form 10-K, at 15;

The Google servers on which books are stored are not publicly accessible. Decl.
Brad Hasegawa Supp. Def. Google Inc.’s Mot. Summ. J. (“Hasegawa Decl.”) ¶ 3.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. The phrases “Google servers on which books are
stored” and “publicly accessible” as used in this statement are undefined, vague, and potentially
misleading. It is undisputed that, subject to rules of its own devising, Google has displayed
verbatim expression from books on the Internet in response to search requests by users of its
search engine. See Zack Decl. Ex. 27, Google Resp. to Pls.’ RFAs at 10; Zack Decl. Ex. 26,

The Google servers on which books are stored are protected by the same security
Google employs to protect its own confidential information. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 3.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, Google is not immune from design flaws and
security breaches. See Zack Decl. Ex. 39, Edelman Report ¶¶ 27-35; Zack Decl. Ex. 13, Google
2011 Form 10-K, at 15.

Google analyzes each scan and creates an overall index of all the books that have
been scanned. Clancy Decl. ¶ 6.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. The statement lacks foundation and the terms and
phrases “analyzes each scan” and “overall index” are vague in the context of this statement and
oversimplify the actual processes involved. See Zack Decl. Ex. 26, Supplemental Narrative at 58.
23.
The Google Books index links each word or phrase appearing in each book with
all of the locations in all of the books in which that word or phrase is found. Clancy Decl. ¶ 6.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad
inasmuch as it refers to Google Books generally and not the Library Project (see response to
Paragraph 4, above).
24.
The Google Books index allows a search for a particular word or phrase to return
a result that includes the most relevant books in which that word or phrase is found. Clancy Decl.
¶ 6.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad
inasmuch as it refers to Google Books generally and not the Library Project (see response to
Paragraph 4, above).
25.
When a user performs a search, Google Books uses the index to generate search
results for a user’s query. Clancy Decl. ¶ 8.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad
inasmuch as it refers to Google Books generally and not the Library Project (see response to
Paragraph 4, above).
26.
The search results return a list of books in which that user’s search term appears.

27.
A user can click on a particular result to be directed to an “About the Book” page.
Clancy Decl. ¶ 9.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated and potentially misleading. It is uncontroverted
that users can click a particular search result and see another webpage. However, the title
“About the Book” does not appear on that page, see Clancy Decl. Ex. C, but rather is how
Google refers to that page. Moreover, the statement is misleading to the extent it implies that
this page is uniform for different books scanned as part of the Library Project. See Zack Decl.
Ex. 16, Clancy Dep. at 126:7-17.
28.
The “About the Book” page allows the user to obtain more information about the
book in question. Clancy Decl. ¶ 9.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated, potentially misleading, and incomplete. See Pls.’
Response to Paragraph 27. Additionally, the statement is incomplete and misleading to the
extent that the statement the “page allows the user to obtain more information” implies that such
information would be unavailable in the absence of the Library Project. For many books, this
page would only provide metadata on the book, see Zack Decl. Ex. 16, Clancy Dep. at 126-127,
which is available from other existing electronic card catalogs, see, e.g., Paragraph 8, above; see
also Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt. ¶ 89.
29.
The About the Book page includes links to sellers of the book. Clancy Decl. ¶ 9.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated and as incomplete. See Pls.’ Response to
Paragraph 27. Additionally, the page may include links to sellers of the book with respect to
books that are in print or link to sellers of used books for out-of-print books where the author
gets no royalties for such sales. For example, by clicking the link to Amazon.com on the Google
Books page for Joseph Goulden’s The Super-Lawyers, a user is taken to a page on the Amazon
website listing used copies of that book for sale, along with links to numerous other unrelated

; see also Declaration of Paul Aiken in
Support of Plaintiffs’ Opposition to Defendant Google’s Motion for Summary Judgment (“Aiken
Decl.”) ¶¶ 4-5, 32-33, and generally.
30.
The About the Book page includes links to libraries listing the book as part of
their collections. Clancy Decl. ¶ 9.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated and as incomplete. See Pls.’ Response to
Paragraph 27. Additionally, rather than “links to libraries,” the page includes a link titled “Find
in a Library,” see Clancy Decl. Ex. C, which when clicked runs a search for libraries the book
may be found on a separate website using the WorldCat online catalog, at
http://www.worldcat.org.
31.
No advertisements have ever appeared on any About the Book page for any book
that is part of the Library Project. Clancy Decl. ¶ 9.
RESPONSE: Controverted. See Pls.’ Response to Paragraph 27. Additionally, the term
“advertisements” as used in this statement is vague and ambiguous. The page attached as Exhibit
C to the Clancy Declaration includes links for the sale of books at various online booksellers, as
well as Google’s own advertisement to “Shop for Books on Google Play,” which it states is “the
world’s largest eBookstore.” See, e.g., Clancy Decl. Ex. C. Moreover, there are links on the
page to Google’s search engine and other services, see id., and the statement is misleading and
incomplete inasmuch as it omits the fact that the primary aim of the Library Project is for Google
to gain a competitive advantage and drive traffic to its search engine where it does generate
advertising revenue. See Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt. ¶¶ 75-79.

In some uses of Google Books, users can also see a small amount of text from the
book (a “snippet”). Clancy Decl. ¶ 10.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “For all of
the millions of books in ‘snippet display,’ users can also see text from the book (a ‘snippet’).”
However, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as it refers to Google Books
generally and not the Library Project (see response to Paragraph 4, above).
33.
Google employs security measures to ensure that users cannot recover the entire
text of a snippet view book. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if restated as follows: “Google
employs security measures that attempt to prevent users from recovering the entire text of a
snippet view book.” Google’s security measures cannot “ensure” anything as there is always the
risk that its “security measures may be breached due to the actions of outside parties, employee
error, malfeasance, or otherwise, and, as a result, an unauthorized party may obtain access to our
data or our users’ or customers’ data.” Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt. ¶ 107; see also Zack Decl. Ex. 39,
Edelman Report ¶¶ 27-35.
34.
Google employs security measures to ensure that users cannot recover one
complete page of a snippet view book. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. Uncontroverted if restated as follows: “Google
employs security measures that attempt to prevent users from recovering one complete page of a
snippet view book.” Google’s security measures cannot “ensure” anything as there is always the
risk that its “security measures may be breached due to the actions of outside parties, employee
error, malfeasance, or otherwise, and, as a result, an unauthorized party may obtain access to our

A user cannot cause the system to return different sets of snippets for the same
search query. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.

result in different displays of text. See Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt. ¶ 47.

The position of each snippet is fixed within the page, and does not represent a
“sliding window” around the search term. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.

38.
Only the first responsive snippet available on any given page will be returned in
response to a query. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.

One of the snippets on each page is blacklisted (meaning that it will not be
shown). Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 4.

Even if an “attacker” had a physical copy of the book in question in front of him,
and used that physical copy to identify words appearing in successive passages to use as the basis
for the attack, the most complete patchwork of snippets he could end up with would still be
missing at least one snippet from every page and 10% of all pages. Hasegawa Decl. ¶ 5.
RESPONSE: Uncontroverted. However, as alternatively stated, by removing just 10%
of the pages and only 1 out of 8 snippets on the remaining pages, approximately 78% of the work
is available to such an “attacker.”
42.
Not all books are placed in “snippet view.” Clancy Decl. ¶ 11.

43.
Works whose text is organized in short “chunks” such as dictionaries, cookbooks,
and books of haiku are excluded from snippet view. Clancy Decl. ¶ 11.

operators who examine each book to ascertain whether it is organized in short chunks. Clancy

Google has a policy of excluding works a rightsholder has asked Google not to

RESPONSE: Controverted. The statement is misleading and confusing inasmuch as it
does not state from what it is that Google has “a policy of excluding” works under such
circumstances. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “Google has a policy of excluding from
snippet display works a rightsholder has asked Google not to display.”
47.
Any rightsholder can ask to exclude a book by filling out an online form which
has been available since 2005. Clancy Decl. ¶ 11.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. The statement is misleading and confusing
inasmuch as it does not state from what it is a rightsholder can ask to exclude a book under such
circumstances. Uncontroverted if re-stated as follows: “Any rightsholder can ask to exclude a
book from snippet display by filling out an online form which has been available since 2005.”
Moreover, the statement omits the fact that in order to seek such exclusion, the rightsholder
would first need to be made aware of the fact that Google has made the work available in snippet
display and Google does not first seek permission from the rightsholder to do so nor does it
notify the rightsholder that it has done so. See Pls.’ 56.1 Stmt. ¶ 54.

For excluded works, users may view bibliographic information about the book but

is at issue. See Response to Paragraph 4, above.
50.
The rightsholder can choose what percentage of the text of the book to display as

is at issue. See Response to Paragraph 4, above.
51.
Most rightsholders in the Partner Program choose to display at least 20% of the
text of their books. Clancy Decl. ¶ 13.
RESPONSE: Controverted as stated. The term “most” as used in the statement is vague
and the statement otherwise lacks a factual basis as the supporting declaration only states that
“usually” the rights holder chooses to display “at least 20%.” Additionally, the statement is
irrelevant in that it refers to the Partner Program, which is not at issue in this litigation, rather
than the Library Project, which is at issue. See Response to Paragraph 4, above.

A search on Google Books for “Steve Hovley” returns dozens of books that
discuss that major leaguer, including Ball Four and a book about the 1969 Seattle Pilots (for
whom Hovley played). Decl. Kurt Groetsch Supp. Def. Google Inc.’s Mot. Summ. J. (“Groetsch

RESPONSE: Controverted in part as misleading and incomplete. The statement is
irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as it refers to Google Books generally, including books for
which permission of the rightsholder has been obtained in the Partner Program, which is not at
issue in this litigation, and is not specific to the Library Project, which is at issue. See Response
to Paragraph 4, above. The statement is also misleading inasmuch as it purports to imply that
Google Books is the only way to search for “Steve Hovley” to find books that discuss the major
leaguer. For example, a search for “Steve Hovley” on Amazon.com, where works are searched
by permission of the rightsholder, returns dozens of books on the subject, including Ball Four:

RESPONSE: Controverted in part as incomplete. The statement is also potentially
misleading inasmuch as it purports to imply that no library may obtain a digital copy of another
library’s book scanned by Google. Libraries that received copies of books digitized by Google
have deposited copies of those digital books in the HathiTrust database, which is a collective
depository of numerous research libraries. See, e.g., Zack Decl. Ex. 33, Courant Dep. at 20-25.

RESPONSE: Controverted as unsupported by the cited materials. None of the material
cited, which discuss Amazon’s “Search Inside the Book” feature generally, address whether any
of the “books at issue in this case” are available using that feature. To the contrary, materials
cited that reflect that are available on the Amazon’s “Search Inside the Book” feature are books
that are subject to the control of the publisher whereas the majority of the “books at issue in this
case” are likely to be out of print. In addition, the statement is misleading to the extent that it
implies that the vast majority of a book is subject to “browsing” on Amazon’s site without the
rightsholder’s permission. See generally Aiken Decl.

feature, which only displays excerpts with the permission of the rightsholders, see Gratz Decl.

Rightsholders give permission for online browsing using “Search Inside the
Book” without compensation to authors. Chevalier Decl. Ex. A ¶ 41; Gratz Decl. Ex. 2, Aiken

RESPONSE: Controverted as stated as “without compensation” is undefined and vague
in this context. In addition, the statement is controverted as misleading, as rightsholders may
receive compensation for certain books that are sold from Amazon.com, unlike the out-of-print
books in the Library Project, which provide no compensation to the author.

of any books does not satisfy the requirements of Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,
509 U.S. 579 (1993), and the Federal Rules of Evidence. However, such an opinion is
meaningless speculation because at her deposition, Prof. Chevalier testified “I have not done any
empirical analysis of the sales of books that were on Google Books.” Zack Decl. Ex. 42,
Chevalier Dep. at 158:25-159:3. Moreover, Prof. Chevalier further testified that, with regard to
analyzing the sales of books that had been displayed in snippet view on Google Books, “I think it
would be a difficult, if not impossible project.” Zack Decl. Ex. 42, Chevalier Dep. at 161:24162:2. Additionally, the statement is irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as it refers to Google

A survey of authors has shown that the majority of authors approve of their
inclusion in Google Books. Decl. Hal Poret Supp. Google Inc.’s Opp’n Plas.’ Mot. Class
Certification Ex. 1 at 14, ECF No. 1001-1.
RESPONSE: Controverted. The survey cited in this statement is irrelevant, misleading
and does not support the statement. The phrase “inclusion in Google Books” is vague and
ambiguous. The survey asked respondents about “the extent to which” they “approve of or
object to Google scanning your copyrighted books so that they can be searched online and short
excerpts displayed in search results.” See ECF No. 1001-3, at Question 245. However, the
survey did not specifically inquire as to whether authors approved of or objected to Google doing
so without permission from or notice to authors and without any compensation. The majority of
27
A-976
Case 1:05-cv-08136-DC Document 1071
Filed 08/26/13 Page 28 of 30
the authors surveyed (508 out of 880—57.7%) were not at all familiar with or had never heard of
Google Books. See Poret Decl. at 26, ECF No. 1001-1. Moreover, most of the authors surveyed
(759 out of 880—86.25%) were unaware of whether their books were available on Google
Books or thought that they were not available. See Poret Decl. at 22, ECF No. 1001-1.
The survey was conducted in 2012 for the purpose of opposing class certification. This
was after two detailed published class notices from the Court stating they would receive
substantial monetary benefits from Google Books (67% of revenue from each book sold, and a
substantial up-front amount for each book scanned) See ECF No. 56, Ex. 1 thereto, at pp. 8 and
21-41. Thus, to the extent any of those surveyed were settlement class members, certain
responses favorable to Google’s Library Project could have mistakenly reflected the belief that
the settlement benefits were in force. In fact, Google actually played on this misassumption.
Google misleadingly asked those surveyed if they “felt” they benefitted financially from Google
Books, and 17.6% answered “yes” (no doubt because they either received class notices or read
the widespread publicity about the proposed class settlement). This is reflected in at least the
following verbatim answers: “You can download my book if you want, you still have to pay for
it.” ECF No. 1001-7, Response No. 100357. “A lot of them are ebooks. One of my publishers
went through Google to get the book electronically. I get royalties through that from the
publisher.” Id, Response No. 100057. “I have a vague memory of informing [sic] I might be
able to get royalties from Google books.” Id., Response No. 100756. “I do get a check for
permission to download a chapter or whatever is download[ed].” Id., Response No. 100357.
Others believed that Google scanned and displayed only books in the public domain.
Google’s survey did not disabuse them of this misapprehension. Google did not explain it was
scanning and displaying books that were in copyright without the rightsholders’ permission.

(E.g., “They’re often old books. They are orphans meaning the author of the book cannot be
found or they’re out of copyright.” (ECF No. 1001-7, No. 100040); “Plan to do public domain
books in Harvard library.” (Id., No. 100116); “Know that they are out of copyright books that are

No. 100528); “That it’s a project to make electronically available all published books that are not
under copyright I assume . . . .” (Id. No. 100188).
Additionally, the statement and the underlying survey are irrelevant and/or overbroad
inasmuch as they refer to Google Books generally, including books for which permission of the
rightsholder has been obtained in the Partner Program, and is not specific to the Library Project,
which is at issue. Google’s reliance on this survey is further controverted for the reasons set
forth in their Memorandum of Law in Opposition to Google’s Motion for Summary Judgment
and in their Reply in Support of the their Motion for Class Certification (ECF No. 1008).

harm from their inclusion in Google Books. Decl. Hal Poret Supp. Google Inc.’s Opp’n Plas.’
Mot. Class Certification Ex. 1 at 14, ECF No. 1001-1.
RESPONSE: Controverted. There was no question in the survey asking respondents
whether they perceived “any harm,” only questions specifically concerning financial harm and
the impact on the demand for books. Additionally, the survey is unreliable and misleading
because the majority of respondents were not at all familiar with or had never heard of Google
Books and the open-ended responses demonstrate fundamental misunderstandings of how
Google Books operates. See Pls.’ Resp. to ¶ 92, above. Additionally, the statement and the
underlying survey are irrelevant and/or overbroad inasmuch as they refer to Google Books
