komo 4 news | Small WA Town Library Takes On The Feds: "The library in Deming isn't much larger than a family home. Located in rural Whatcom County, it hardly seems the site for a showdown with the feds.
'I think we all figure it's places like the New York Library System that's going to be one of the first we hear about,' said the attorney for the Whatcom County Library System, Deborra Garret.
At the center of the issue, a book titled 'Bin Laden: The Man Who Declared War on America.'
The FBI confiscated the original book after a patron reported than some one hand wrote a bin Laden quote in the margin that read: 'Let history be witness I am a criminal.'
The FBI demanded to know the names and addresses of everyone who ever checked out the book. "
