Do you have concerns about patron privacy at your library? Some argue that
libraries should collect, retain, and use patron data to provide better
personalized services to patrons. This is a serious challenge to the
profession’s ethical commitment to protecting patron privacy, especially
since many platforms providing these services are operated by vendors who
may not share librarians’ professional values. We’ll explore these issues
and discuss possible frameworks that allow libraries to provide
personalized services while maintaining their commitment to protecting
patron privacy.

Join us for this free webinar where we will here from library privacy
experts:

   - Deborah Caldwell-Stone (ALA Office of Intellectual Freedom) will share
   the legal and ethical foundations for patron privacy, as well as resources
   that can be used to help libraries preserve privacy when adopting new
   technology.
   - Michael Robinson (Intellectual Freedom Committee, Alaska Library
   Association) will share specific examples of how new technologies and
   platforms can pose a threat to patron privacy, and what can be done to
   minimize those threats in the library setting.
