Caveat Lector: The books and the Google

Dorothea quotes some guy (re: Google's digitization program):

Didn’t we [librarians] collectively think we’d be leading the way into our rightful future as the guardians and disseminators of digital text?

My point: Google has the dough. They've got this huge market cap and all kinds of capital, and they can afford to do this. If they use it for search and selling and we get some reasonable benefits from it, I say bully.
