Creators & Contributors

Marketwatch reports that U.S. District Judge John Sprizzo has consolidated two of the lawsuits against Google for its opt-out Library Program.  (Thanks to Barry Schwartz.)  The merged suits are those from the Authors Guild and five book publishers led by McGraw-Hill.  At the same time, Sprizzo said he wouldn't be able to decide the case until February or May 2008, leaving the parties plenty of time to settle.
