Publisher makes $1M donation to Katrina Libraries

Scott Carlson reports in the Wired Chronicle News that Springer has made a $1M to 7 libraries affected by Katrina. A for-profit publisher does some good....Here's the story:

"A major academic publisher has donated more than $1-million in electronic books to seven university libraries in New Orleans damaged by Hurricane Katrina. With the gift, from Springer, seven Louisiana libraries will get free, permanent access to more than 10,000 electronic books, mainly in the sciences, technology, and medicine."
