Evidence guides Gowers to strike the right balance on copyright
As the author of the Gowers Review into copyright and intellectual property, Andrew Gowers has struck just the right note.
"The evidence he has taken on board should be commended," said Lynne Brindley, chief executive of the British Library. Like others in the information industry, she praised the government for using evidence to shape its policy.
For those of you who didn't spend Christmas reading the full 140-odd pages of the report, the Gowers Review covered everything from library archives to the rise and fall of hip-hop as an example of creativity.
