Hi, Can anyone provide me with information on the following issue. A little 
while ago a co-librarian of mine noticed that I was entering all the data 
into our cataloge from scratch. He asked me why don't I just copy cataloge. 
In another words find the similiar book on another libraries webpage and 
cut and paste the information into our cataloge. I mentioned this to 
another Librarian who questioned its legality. The first librarian told me 
that the other libraries webpage is public and they can't copyright the 
title or author of a book. And since it's being copied into our cataloge we 
aren't taking anything from the first library other then the title and 
author etc.  Who is correct and where can I find out more about this issue 
in general
Thanks
