[CODE4LIB] proxying Google Book Search and advertising networks to protect patron privacy

[Eric Hellman]

Recent attention to privacy concerns about Google Book Search have led  
me to investigate whether any libraries are using tools such as proxy  
servers to enhance patron privacy when using Google Book Search.  
Similarly, advertising networks (web bugs, for example) could be  
proxied for the same reason. I would be very interested to hear from  
any libraries that have done either of these things and of their  
experiences doing so.
