I thought some of you may be interested in this conference, organized
by James Grimmelmann (New York Law School) and held on October 26 and
27 in New York: http://laboratorium.net/archive/2012/07/30/in_re_books

From the description: “It will feature a wide-ranging conversation
among authors, publishers, librarians, readers, and scholars about how
law inflects all aspects of the creation, distribution, and
consumption of books—and how these laws should change as the digital
transition upends publishing. There will be panels devoted to
electronic rights, the publishing industry, the future of libraries,
readers’ rights, orphan books and mass digitization, and the long view
on the history and future of books.”
