I thought that with the Patriot Act furor the ALA would have a legislative action committee concering the scope of librarians' reporting obligations. I suppose the Act was only about making them respond to requests, but still. . . . Internet access is such a novel concept for libraries -- providing access to materials they don't have or control. This is such a large issue I would expect the national organization to help develop guidelines, if it desires to maintain relevance. Oh, well, you're probably right it would just have been one more unproductive telephone call in my day.
