Confidentiality and Library Records: What Are The Rules?

Led by Eileen Palmer, Executive Director of LMxAC and Chair of the NJ Library Association’s Public Policy Committee.

This 2 hour program is designed to introduce the NJ Library confidentiality Law and discuss how this law is applied in our libraries. Attendees are encouraged to bring examples of local policies and procedures and join in the discussion about the real life situations that can make it difficult to uphold this vital law. We will also discuss the USA PATRIOT Act and its impact on requests for library records.

Intended Audience: Frontline staff who would like a clear
understanding of confidentiality and privacy issues and laws.

We will try to answer the following questions:

  1. What does the NJ Library Confidentiality Law say?
  2. What is a library record?
  3. What are the common instances where records might be requested?
  4. What impact does the USA PATRIOT Act have on the NJ Library Confidentiality Law?
  5. What is a FISA Court? National Security letter?
2 CEU's Will be given for this workshop
