FWIW, Google has made some statements in response to the AAUP complaint, the most notable being that any publisher can remove any in-copyright book--or all their books--from the program.

Then the question for publishers becomes how much material Google displays for searchers. If it's a limited amount, as in Amazon's Search Inside the Book program, most publishers will be happy. Amazon claims their program increases sales and publishers seem to agree.
