OVERVIEW:

Our third Library 2.022 mini-conference: "Libraries and Privacy: Critical Issues for Information Professionals," will be held online (and for free) on Thursday, October 13th, 2022, from 12:00 - 3:00 pm US-Pacific Time.

The mini-conference will highlight the many different kinds of privacy (and privacy problems) that information institutions and professionals face, with an emphasis on how these professionals can and should engage with the critical dimensions of privacy in their work.

Privacy as a field has undergone tremendous change in the past few years as information and communication technologies have become increasingly distributed, with data and records flowing through multiple jurisdictions, under uncertain custody and control, and with the increasing use of automated techniques and agents to make decisions about and through that information. The problems with privacy range from fundamental questions of definition and scope, to questions of equity and inclusion, to intensely technical questions about law and technology.

Topics could include but are not limited to the following::

  • Privacy basics for the library;
  • Privacy issues specific to marginalized communities;
  • Privacy issues specific to different age and school levels;
  • Privacy and photographs / social media;
  • Privacy and artificial intelligence;
  • Privacy issues when helping patrons with health records;
  • Privacy and intellectual freedom;
  • Privacy and blockchain;
  • Privacy and big data analytics;
  • Privacy and virtual / mixed reality.

This is a free event, being held live online and also recorded.
