The Ethics of Innovation: Navigating privacy, policy and service issues  

http://www.oclc.org/innovation/?utm_source=WhatCountsEmail&utm_medium=Special+Offers+%26+Information%2BSpecial+Offers+-+Education,+Leadership+%26+Research&utm_campaign=OCLC+Sales

A discussion of ethics has been part of the professional landscape since 1903 when Mary Plummer, ALA President, presented the first code of ethics for librarians. Since then, the information services landscape has only become more challenging and complex.

Join OCLC and Library Journal on Wednesday, Nov 17th from 1-3 p.m. Eastern Time for our second online symposium. We'll discuss the ways in which ethical considerations affect innovation, privacy issues and how libraries deliver services. From 3-4 p.m. we'll have a dedicated Twitter hour with the keynote speakers and librarian moderator. Please post your questions to Twitter hashtag #ethicsIQ.

No travel. No cost. Just insight.

Register today at www.oclc.org/innovation        Panelists include:
