So which is it? Because searching Google and the library records are pretty much one and the same.
Google maybe a private company BUT they perform a very public service and those records should be allowed the same privacy.
So if you argue it is wrong for them to search Google it is the same argument for libraries. Doesn't matter if one is private (actually it isn't it is a publicly held and traded company now) and one is public..... because the services are identical.
You do not pay for Google much the same as you do not pay the library for their services.
