Development of the Richard J. Brown Library information kiosk
No full textPlan BThis paper follows the development of the “Richard J. Brown Library Information Center”, a computer-based informational kiosk. The information center was developed in response to a perceived need by the college’s Audio Visual (A/V) department. It was placed in service for a trial period early in February of 1998, and remained operational until the end of the semester in May of 1998. The information center was to answer basic questions the library patrons had about the Richard J. Brown Library. The library staff saw it as a place where questions regarding locations, features, and policies could be readily answered. The center would augment services provided by the circulation desk staff and serve as a backup during times when the staff was busy with other patrons. After an initial rush by the curious, utilization of the center was minimal and the library staff began to wonder about its usefulness. The information center was taken off line for evaluation at the end of the semester. Evaluation of the project lead to the conclusion that it was not meeting the library’s needs and should be discontinued

Design Strategy, Inc. v. Davis, 469 F. 3d 284
No full textPlaintiff-counter-defendant-appellant Design Strategies, Inc. ( Design ) appeals from a judgment entered in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Marrero, J.). The action arises out of the alleged diversion of a corporate opportunity by defendant-counterclaimant-appellee Marc E. Davis ( Davis ) during the course of his employment with Design. According to Design, the corporate opportunity was diverted to defendant-appellee Info Technologies Web Solutions ( IT Web ), with the collusion of defendants-appellees Info Technologies, Inc. ( Infotech ) and John Goullet ( Goullet ), Chief Executive Officer of both Infotech and IT Web (collectively, the IT Defendants ). Davis was employed by IT Web following the alleged diversion.
The District Court, in an order dated April 27, 2005, precluded Design from presenting evidence in support of its claim for lost profits, pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 37(b), on the ground that it had not disclosed the computation of those lost profits, as required by Fed.R.Civ.P. 26(a)(1)(c). In that same Order, the District Court also rejected a demand by Design for a jury trial, the District Court having found that all of Design\u27s remaining claims were equitable and therefore that no jury trial right existed. Following a bench trial, the District Court concluded, in an Order dated August 11, 2005, that Davis (a) had not diverted a corporate opportunity; (b) had not engaged in unfair competition; (c) had breached a fiduciary duty of loyalty, requiring the forfeiture of four weeks of 288*288 salary; (d) was not liable for overpaid commissions; and (e) had not been unjustly enriched; and that (f) the IT defendants had not aided and abetted Davis\u27s breach of fiduciary duty; and (g) a claim for punitive damages was unsupported
