USAian copyright law is very different from ours. What passes muster
there almost certainly won't wash here.
I occasionally use Google Books in my family history research. Quite
often, the books I'm interested in are located on Google's US servers.
As such, they're unavailable to view here, using normal methods;
Differences in copyright law. I have to resort to a proxy service to
get a peak at the books.
That, in itself, won't be enough to reassure you that your material is
safe, I know. As already suggested, you'll probably need some legal
advice. Often, the initial consultation is free, but limited to 1/2 hr
or so. It might be enough to outline your problem, and determine
whether it'd be cost effective to pursue the matter.
