Surprise! The House announced late in the day on Friday, 2/4, that they'll be voting to renew the expiring sections of the USA PATRIOT Act on Tuesday, 2/8, which include the so-called "library provision." Details can be found on the ACLU's blog: http://www.aclu.org/blog/national-security/house-voting-patriot-act-tomorrow.
The ALA's Web site has a wealth of information on how these sections impact libraries: http://www.ala.org/ala/aboutala/offices/oif/ifissues/usapatriotact.cfm.
