Live From Berkeley: Google Books Settlement and the Future of Information Access Conference

UPDATE: The event is now over. According to a UC Berkeley spokesperson to us that the video will be available in the next week or two on the conference homepage.

The Google Books Settlement and the Future of Information Access Conference is currently underway in Berkeley, CA.

Some people are tweeting the event using the following hashtags:
1) http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23gbsfia
2) http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23ucbgbooksconf

Mark Liberman at Language Log is doing an excellent job live blogging the event.

So is Eli Edwards (Miss_Eli) who has links to a prepared presentation or two.

These two posts (1 ||| 2) have some background.

Post 2 includes an audio interview by The Guardian of Peter Brantley from the Open Book Alliance. Here's a recent interview with Dan Clancy from Google.
