Mary is too modest to note the following blurb from The Chronicle of Higher Education on the current issue of The Journal of College and University Law, but I am not. The Chronicle quotes Michael A. Olivas's introduction to the special issue:
People can't avoid "cringing," he says, when they read a report on how the USA Patriot Act affects college libraries. That article -- by Lee S. Strickland, a visiting professor of information policy at the University of Maryland at College Park; Mary Minow, a lawyer and former librarian; and Tomas Lipinski, an assistant professor of information studies at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee -- will "shock even those readers who suspected that the world had changed."
The issue is not online. Information about the journal is available at http://www.nd.edu/~jcul/patriot_act.html
.
UPDATE: A copy of the article is now available at http://www.cip.umd.edu/publications/patriot_in_the_library.pdf
Congratulations. I'll have to look for a copy once I get back to the Bay Area ...

Good goin' Mary!
I do wonder about the "former librarian" phrase, though. Once a librarian, always a librarian.
