Judith Krug said she would have rather the librarian followed privacy laws and not reported the terrorist's activities to the police. This was reported in the New York Times.<BR/><BR/>And when I spoke with Bernard Kerik on this issue, he said I should tell librarians who place terrorist's privacy above national interests to "knock it off."<BR/><BR/>If people are interested in balance and they use the ALA for a source, they must in my opinion point out the ALA's bias as evidenced by its support for the 9/11 terrorist. Here's the source: "A Nation Challenged: Questions of Confidentiality; Competing Principles Leave Some Professionals Debating Responsibility to Government" by David E.
