She <br />stated that, according to the Patriots Act, federal agents could obtain records of <br />what citizens borrow from a library without judicial oversight and librarians cannot <br />inform those citizens. She wanted to know what the library's policy will be about <br />compliance. <br /> <br />Tim Michels, 7038 Cornell Avenue, described the Patriots Act as Orwellian. He <br />was alarmed about special registration requirements for certain groups by the <br />federal government. He expressed support for Mr. Lieberman's draft resolution <br />and that asked that the term citizens include legal residents. <br /> <br /> <br />
