Could the Supreme Court outlaw your library's right to lend?...not this time.

The Supreme Court has been examining the first sale doctrine in regard to Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. The ruling is detailed here. Let's hope the first sale doctrine is always upheld, as it was this time. Your libraries' right to lend depends on it.
