S21 - Patron Privacy in the Digital Age: Support from Many Data Handlers Required!
Conference Track
8. Emerging Technologies & Trends
Learning Objectives
understand the elements involved in improved support for patron privacy in a competitive digital environment, communicate to their organizations and partners the areas in a library setting that require attention for patron privacy
Abstract
Libraries have a long history of supporting patron privacy. But privacy in a digital environment, especially one that is web or cloud-based, is evolving in ways that are outside direct control of libraries. This session will discuss the framework around privacy--consensus work involving libraries, publishers, and vendors--lauched by NISO in 2015.
