Abstract:

The author goes back to the first principles of information governance and discusses what impact the means and methods that we chose to control information has on the nature of information itself. Focusing on the Google Book Project, he suggests an analytical method for considering information access and control issues that avoids privileging any particular player and instead focuses on information governance as a dynamic process.
