I just learned yesterday that James Brubaker, convicted of stealing books and maps from over 100 libraries, was released in May.  He is on parole and probation and I believe he is not allowed to leave the state of Montana.  He is living in Billings.  You can see his photograph at http://tinyurl.com/jbrubaker

There's a pretty good summary of the case here if you start at the bottom and read up.
