+Notes
+=====
+
+This are talking points based on questions that have come from presentations
+about DIBS:
+
++ DIBS requires a human processes in addition to the software
++ DIBS requires a IIIF server in addition to DIBS
++ DIBS requires an authentication service (e.g. Shibboleth, Apache BasicAuth)
++ DIBS is not about automation
++ DIBS is about providing access to materials via a standard viewer using IIIF
++ DIBS, as a CDL implementation, isn't a cost cutting tool
++ DIBS is not intended to reducing staffing requirements
++ DIBS is not used to generate E-Books
++ DIBS is about increasing access to materials which are not otherwise available in electronic form
+
+
+Other observations
+------------------
+
+Adding DRM to digital objects is complex, error prone and generally
+doesn't successfully prevent copying. A good example is that most 
+cell phones have one or more high resolution of cameras. Most new monitors
+are high resolution and increasingly affordable. It is trivial to film a
+screen. You can then assemble the images into a PDF of a work or with
+additional effort turn that into an E-Book. DRM can't stop that. DRM at
+best makes it inconvenient to copy.
+
+Without a download button it is inconvenient to copy IIIF materials where
+the source URLs are mitigated by a login and access control.
+
+In the Caltech context the CDL approach made the most sense for resources
+that are not currently available for purchase in electronic form but
+where there was still demand to circulate the material for research or
+instruction without shipping physical copies to patrons. This approach
+solved our need for remote course reserve material that was not
+available in electronic form for purchase by the library.
+
+
+Things to track
+---------------
+
+The Internet Archive is currently making the case that CDL comes under
+existing library sanctioned activity. If this is upheld in the courts
+then you may find an increased adoption CDL as well as an increase in
+implementations.
+
+For materials that outside of copyright concerns (e.g. material now in
+the public domain) the CDL technique may remain a good method of
+distributing materials remotely either avoiding or decreasing the need
+to copy and ship physical objects.  This could be particularly useful in
+the context of historical works and archival material.
+
+In the past Tim O'Reilly of O'Reilly Media undertook a study to evaluate
+piracy and the effectiveness of DRM. What he found was that piracy more
+often occurred where there was no business relationship with the countries
+where the piracy took place. I.e. people pirated O'Reilly books if they
+could not buy them or get them from their local library.  When O'Reilly
+material was made available through a legitimate channel the piracy
+decreased. This suggests that CDL may actually help publishers deal
+with piracy related to availability of a work.  When public libraries
+were originally introduced in this country (the United States) publishers
+where extremely concerned that no one would buy their books if anyone
+could read them for free in a public library. In short they feared a
+decrease in sales revenue.  What actually happened was the opposite.
+Public libraries spread literacy and increased the appetite of the public
+to purchase books.
