    Good morning, how do you feel about vendors asking you for personal
    information for access to public records at the workplace? Within the
    last month, I have had a couple of verification forms that asked me to
    attach a copy of my driver's license. One also asked for my home
    contact information and social security number. It strikes me as overly
    intrusive and I have been reluctant to provide them. What is reasonable
    information for us to provide to maintain access to sensitive
    information? What is reasonable for vendors to request? Is this just
    an issue for law firms, or have other types of libraries (court or
    academic) been asked for the same kinds of information?

    Perhaps I should create my own form for them to verify the authorized
    use of my information!

    Thanks, Laurie
