A summary of the Library Awareness Program, which ran from 1973 to the late 1980s, in which the Federal Bureau of Investigation expected librarians to "report on 'foreigners' [who were] using America's unclassified scientific libraries." Text from a speech by Herbert Foerstel, the author of the book, "Surveillance in the Stacks: The FBI's Library Awareness Program."
