Hello- This is an interesting problem and I greatly share the worry that these vile publishers will profit from such purchases. Some suggestions: 1. Request the materials on interlibrary loan. Some academic libraries collect extremist literature as do a few public libraries. It is worthwhile to check WorldCat. 2. Find out if any of the materials have been digitized. Some racist organizations kvell (the proper word, no doubt!) at the prospect of offering their full-text publications on the web. Be careful, however, about searching for these sites on your computer because many websites track the IP address of readers. (http://www.wikihow.com/Surf-the-Web-Anonymously-with-Proxies) I hope Ha-Safran readers post other recommendations to this list. It is a troubling issue and I'm very curious how other librarians deal with it. -Donald Altschiller Boston University
