Julie Wilson’s Indigo entente

Embattled lit blogger Julie Wilson, who was kicked out of a Toronto Indigo location earlier this week while doing research for her website Seen Reading, has come to an understanding with Indigo Books & Music chief merchant Joel Silver. Wilson, who blogs about what she sees people reading in public places, had been copying a passage from a book for an upcoming post when she was approached by an overzealous staffer who apparently doesn’t know the meaning of fair dealing.

Over at Bookninja, Wilson tells George Murray about the latest developments:

JW: Hey George, Good conversation with Joel Silver at Chapters-Indigo just now. GTA stores will be made aware of Seen Reading, and I have a contact I’m able to pass along should their be a need. Liberates me from having to explain, and gives Chapters-Indigo the ability to use their own language. Feels like a clean solution, and one I’m happy with. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go back undercover. I’m the Garbo of the Book World!
