Abstract
There has been a tremendous amount of excellent analysis and insight into the best practices that state and local governments should follow to balance the public’s dual interests in privacy and open access. Fred H. Cate and Richard J. Varn produced an excellent report in 1999 for the Coalition for Sensible Public Records Access (CSPRA), The Public Record: Information Privacy and Access.173 The Office ofManagement and Budget (OMB) in the Executive Office of the President has also produced voluminous materials prescribing privacy practices for federal agencies.174
