Bookstore to Provide Information to Starr

Kramerbooks & afterwords Inc., a Washington bookstore, will turn over information about Monica S. Lewinsky’s book purchases to Lewinsky’s lawyers, sidestepping a 1st Amendment fight, legal sources said. Under an agreement to be announced today, lawyers for Lewinsky, a former White House intern at the heart of sex and cover-up charges dogging President Clinton, will give this subpoenaed information to independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr, the sources said. Judy Smith, a spokeswoman for Lewinsky, confirmed the arrangement. “We are cooperating with the Office of Independent Counsel on this issue.”
