Michael Sauers made it to BoingBoing. Over on the Nebraska Library Commission Blog Sauers wrote about hi move to to take electronic versions of CC titles... "post them on our Web server, catalog them in the OPAC, then offer them up to those that wanted them. Additionally, for some titles the license allowed for physical printing of the works so we sent those files off to the print shop to turn them into spiral-bound books to be added to the physical collection. (A few days later the print shop called back to question our right to print these works. A few pointers back to the CC Web site and the relevant licenses straightened it all out.)"
