Heidi Goldstein sent along a story with what could be the Punniest headline ever. FBI snooping has librarians stamping mad . They talk about Zoia Horn \”the first librarian who spent time in jail for a value of our profession.\” After an encounter with an FBI informant in a Pennsylvania college library, Horn spent nearly three weeks in jail for refusing to testify for the prosecution in the sensational trial of anti-war activists accused of a terrorist plot.
\”They should say, \’We stand by our librarians if they wish not to respond (to the FBI) because it is against our religion,\’ \” she said. \”All kinds of options are there for a librarian with a conscience.\”
