Don't be Turrowed

Don't be Turrowed, as in Scott Turrow, the president of the Author's Guild, who argued in a New York Times piece that ebooks would be the end of authors. Libraries have shot back, not wanting to be Turrowed. Mareen Sullivan, President of the American Library Association, has written, also in an oped piece for the New York Times: "It is not in the long-term interests of authors (or publishers) to deny library e-lending and the educational benefits it affords." Libraries are adamantly and wonderfully trying to make ebook lending a way of life for Americans. So everyone who can't see that ebooks and print books can coexist have been Turrowed. Don't be Turrowed.
