Mary Sue Coleman delivered an inspiring address yesterday to the Association
of American Publishers. Here's a snippet:

"I have spent 45 years in higher education, from being a freshman at a small
liberal arts college in Iowa, to leading of one of the premier research
universities of the world. I have been involved in groundbreaking medical
research, have worked alongside some of the brightest minds in academe, and
have dined with Pulitzer Prize winners and Nobel laureates. Google Book
Search is the most revolutionary enterprise I've ever experienced. It has
the potential to transform the flow of knowledge, and there is no greater
gesture a university can make."

Now that puts Google Book Search in perspective!
