Abstract

The USA PATRIOT Act (“Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act”) has been troubling for libraries of all types, writes Dave Rogers, and recent legislation to renew provisions have brought the debate on balancing security and personal freedom to the foreground. The article contains an annotated bibliography.
