The Patriot Act and the Confidentiality of Library Records
SANDALL Luncheon Topic on March 10
“The Patriot Act As It Applies to the Confidentiality of Library Records” is the timely topic of the March brownbag luncheon meeting of the San Diego Area Law Libraries (SANDALL) to be held at the Thomas Jefferson School of Law library on Friday, March 10, from 12:00 noon to 1:00 p.m. The Senate overwhelmingly passed legislation yesterday renewing the controversial anti-terror law, which was set to expire this Friday. The House is expected to approve the bill and the approval of President Bush is anticipated to follow within 30 days.
John Parmley, assistant U.S. Attorney in the Counter Terrorism Division, and Kevin M. Keenan, Executive Director of the ACLU of San Diego and Imperial Counties, will address the impact of the Patriot Act on library records.
Lunch will be served to the loc al law librarians in attendance. For more information or to RSVP by March 8, contact Eliza Sanchez at (619) 297-9700, ext. 1105.
