According to this AP news story, Keith Ellison will take his oath of office using a copy of the Quran once owned by Thomas Jefferson.

A lot of people are in an uproar over this, but personally, I am all in favor of it. If the gentleman is going to be asked to swear upon a holy book, shouldn't it be a book that is holy to him?
