university photocopied books, four complaints

SOURCE On the morning of 19/11 / '08 Photocopies of college textbooks sold at less than half the original price. Collected in bundles for students who wanted to save on books. Four Fisciano booksellers have been sued by the financiers of Salerno Group, headed by Lieutenant Colonel Fabrizi Chirico. As established by the military finance, the four booksellers selling photocopied handouts at a price ranging between 18 and 35 while the book originally cost € 45 to € 100. And there were publications of all kinds of legal texts to those of business, from books used in medicine to those of philosophy. The yellow flames have so far found and seized 215 illegally copied texts, along with ten two personal computers and photocopiers. Curiosity: Some of these texts were also stored on personal computers so they can be downloaded as needed. The military, however, did not act alone. During the operation were also accompanied by officials of the Italian Society of Authors and Publishers (SIAE), whose contribution was crucial in that they have collaborated to identify the libraries that were acting illegally. The transaction is the result of a specific investigative activity during which the financiers, through ambushes and controls, libraries have noticed some particularly crowded. So, knowing that at the beginning of each school year there is a trade in copies of books, the military was enough just to find a large quantity of notes ready for distribution, and cleverly hidden in premises adjacent to the counter-sale of four libraries near the University. Booksellers have all been reported as responsible for the violation of the rules on copyright. There are still ongoing investigations to ascertain how many notes have been sold and they would have already escaped the tax, accounting for failure of the proceeds. In fact, their modus operandi was simple: some students were already aware of the alternative, but to others it was proposed savings with the alternative dispensation to the book. Focusing their business on word of mouth among the students themselves. It is not the first time that finance scored an intervention of this kind, in other circumstances, however, the military had acted on the request of the publishers who had requested more stringent controls at every new exam or the beginning of academic year .
