I saw this question on another list. Does anyone on NGC4LIB have any helpful info?
"Some of our users think that they've seen where some libraries/consortia have loaded records for Google Books that they don't actually own, e.g., the Michigan records... either that or they've heard from someone who's heard from someone that this has been done. All the examples we've been pointed to turn out to be cases where the links to Google are on records for owned print versions. Have any of you acquired and loaded non-owned records for any of freely-available digitized books - Google or otherwise? If so, how did you go about getting the records. If not, do you know anyone who has?"
