The Register reported in 2009 that volume 1 of a book by Lafcadio Hearn was not available for a full preview at Google Books because it was marked as "copyrighted material" and offered for sale by Kessinger Publishing. According to the article, some "scholars were outraged" because the book was previously in the public domain (accused them of copyfraud), and criticized Kessinger Publishing for making the Internet copy of the book "useless to scholars" by forcing them to purchase it.[5]
