Looking for a CRS Report

Hello. I'm looking for a hard-to-find report from the Congressional
Research Service (CRS): CRS Report RL30671, Personal Privacy
Protection: The Legislative Response, by Harold C. Relyea. (I'm not
sure of the publication year; maybe 2001?) I am planning a
graduate-level class on information policy and privacy, so this would
be an important reading for my class to have.

I know CRS reports are not typically made available to the public, but
this one has been cited in several subsequent studies, so I think there
must be at least a few copies floating around out there. I've already
tried the various organizations that collect CRS reports for the
general public (i.e, Federation of American Scientists, OpenCRS at the
Center for Democracy and Technology, and University of North Texas
Libraries).

If anyone has a copy of the report that can be made available to me (or
can point me to a copy), I would greatly appreciate it. Or, if anyone
can suggest another place to look or a different listserv to try, that
would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

-Shannon

People often forget that CRS reports are available upon request from their
congressional member or Senator.  Turnaround time is usually pretty quick.

Naturally it would be helpful to everyone if any such report that is not
already available online could be provided to one of the organizations that
performs that useful service.

Your best bet is to ask a member of your state's congressional delegation to obtain it for you.
