This is one of the questions I've had about the Google Book Project for awhile: Didn't the libraries that partnered with Google receive the digital files for the books scanned from their collections? I recall that being part of the agreement when the project first began, but I haven't heard much about it since. Were there limits on what the libraries could do with these files? Or did that never actually end up happening?
