Subject: RE: BS: FBI & Your Library Card - Libraries Warn
Maybe libraries do keep records of books we have checked out. I dunno. Of course, books that are currently 'out' are tagged to the last known borrower, but I thought the info gets wiped afterward.

In the 'old' days, the days of the rental card in the pocket of each book, each borrower's signature was on each card. It was kind of fun to see who else had checked it out. (And sometimes I found that I myself had checked it out a year or two before.)

It's my impression that the library does NOT have a list of the hundreds and hundreds of books I have checked out in the last 15 years. If they do, I myself would like a list.

Rapaire, as a librarian, do you know how I'd go about finding my list?
