Since I'm probably not the only one wondering, from TechNewsWorld.com
http://bit.ly/9OP5Ld :
"The Library will archive all posts marked as "public," according to
Raymond. Those posts marked "private" and that are direct exchanges between
individuals will not be included in the collection."

Don't see any definitive answer about deleted tweets.

> According to CNN: 
> "Twitter and the Library of Congress announced Wednesday that every public
tweet posted since Twitter started in 2006 will be archived digitally by the
> federal library."
