The Impact of the USA PATRIOT Act on Free Expression
This analysis argues that "libraries remain more important than ever to ensuring the right of every individual to hold and express opinions and to seek and receive information. ... But just as the public is exercising its right to receive information and ideas ... in order to understand the events of the day, government is threatening these very liberties." Written for the Free Expression Policy Project (FEPP) by Nancy Kranich, past president, American Library Association.
