A Paris court has found Google guilty of copyright infringement in a ruling which could have ramifications for its plans to digitise the world's books.
The search giant must pay 300,000 euros (£266,000) in damages and interest to French publisher La Martiniere.
It was one of many to take Google to court for digitizing its books without explicit permission.
Google was also ordered to pay 10,000 euros a day until it removes extracts of the books from its database. more here
Footnote:My own novel was one of the books captured by google. The link to the real site is here:Return (by John Durham)
Part of it was made available on www.weread.com
