"One major consequence of the shift to digital is the addition of graphical, audio, and video elements to the written word. More profound, however, is the book's reinvention in a networked environment. Unlike the printed book, the networked book is not bound by time or space. It is an evolving entity within an ecology of readers, authors and texts. Unlike the printed book, the networked book is never finished: it is always a work in progress.
As such, the Institute is deeply concerned with the surrounding forces that will shape the network environment and the conditions of culture: network neutrality, copyright and privacy. We believe that a free, neutral network, a progressive intellectual property system, and robust safeguards for privacy are essential conditions for an enlightened digital age."
Bob Stein, uno de los miembros fundadores del Institute, estuvo en la Feria Internacional del Libro de Buenos Aires 2011. Hay que buscar sus rastros en la cara o en las mentes de la gente que asistió a las Jornadas Profesionales.
Estamos, sin duda, en condiciones de crear en la Universidad de Buenos Aires un Instituto del Libro de esta naturaleza. Cerebros no faltan.
