Each document is linked on a page that also contains a few sentences about it from Prof. Grimmelmann.
The filings on the essential readings list include:
+ Amazon
+ The Open Book Alliance Supplemental Brief
+ Filing for an International Group, Carl Hanser Verlag, Lead Objector
+ Arlo Gurthie Objection
+ The State of Connecticut
+ AT&T (A New Objector)
+ A Group of Indian Publishers
+ The brief filed for the:
SFWA (Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America), ASJA (American Society of Journalists and Authors (ASJA), and NWU (National Writers Union).
