A New York federal judge has granted a motion to delay a scheduled hearing on the fairness of Google's plan to create a digital database of books, according to a court order Thursday. Google and the key groups who support the database -- the Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers -- filed the motion on Tuesday. Critics of the proposed database, including the Justice Department, have filed objections claiming that it would give Google a monopoly on so-called orphan works, whose authors cannot be located.
