What you are looking up in the library catalog is absolutely of interest to the surveillance state. Are you okay with anyone who looks the Autobiography of Malcolm X being added to a watchlist? And incidentally, if your ISP decided to collect that information and share it with the government, they could collect that information with a MitM attack that would give you absolutely no indication that a MitM attack, so your assertion that "this has never shown up as an issue" doesn't hold much weight.
