<p class="MsoNormal">Hello:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many libraries are receiving FOIA requests for employee information from a group called “American Transparency.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am researching this and compiling a memo of information that libraries can review when determining how to respond.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I will post the memo on Michlib-L on Friday for everyone’s information.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please don’t hesitate to contact me if I can provide any additional assistance!</p>
