Harvard prof to Coop: Here's what you can do with your intellectual-property claim
John Palfrey, over at the Law School, tells the Coop why it doesn't own exclusive rights to the ISBNs on the books it sells. He adds:
It's fairly certain that The Coop can kick students out of their store for many reasons, but the claim of [intellectual property] in the facts of what books I and others are assigning to our students is off the mark. I for one certainly never conveyed such a right to the Coop.
Also: Coop? If you threaten to take your books and go home, don't let the door hit you on the way out - somebody else will be perfectly happy to sell textbooks to tomorrow's Masters of the Universe, he continues.
