Abstract
- The article discusses a new state statute that went into effect in Vermont on July 1, 2008, declaring patron registration and transaction records confidential in all types of libraries. The law prohibits sharing those records except with written permission of the library patron and in response to an authorized judicial order or warrant. It also allows any library to release information to custodial parents and guardians of patrons under age 16.
