Not in the Netherlands, unfortunately, where the local library gleefully
keeps track of everything I've ever made use of, to give better customer
service, but also to be able to oblige the police in their
investigations. We handed in our cards and have started to buy more and
more books second-hand instead.

They're not using the Geac library system, then, as it
only keeps book/patron linkages until the book
is returned and fines paid. And yes, Geac is
very active in the Netherlands, despite the
local pronunciation of its nme.
