Yes, I love C4L too, but
Can/does C4L have players on NISO for example - what is C4L involvement in standards? Should/could C4L be involved in standards? (And probably tangentially, is C4L a professional organization?)
Wow, this is turning into another iteration of the "library community web standards" thread from last week, isn't it?
But man, I think we're losing so many opportunities to have a voice in the development of technologies that could be useful to us and our users.

PS, just to throw this back in response: I disagree that "current print books in academic libraries aren't conducive to student learning" - they're just more one tool in the research tool kit, aren't they and would they get used more often if librarians made them easier to use?

This is as good as it gets, which is pretty good in my opinion.
