Case Studies in Library and Information Science Ethics (Paperback)

This valuable casebook, written specifically for library and
information science professionals, presents 125 case studies that
combine theories of ethics and librarianship with practical,
real-life scenarios. After an introduction on ethics in library and
information science, chapters are devoted to ethical issues in five
categories: intellectual freedom, privacy, intellectual property,
professional ethics, and intercultural information ethics.Every
chapter contains a theoretical introduction followed by 25 case
studies, each of which includes its own set of discussion questions
and references. Readers will most likely be familiar with the
concepts, professional considerations, and ethical issues related
to the case studies in the first four categories, while the
still-emerging realm of intercultural information ethics
illustrates the evolving nature of library and information work
from a global perspective. Perfectly suited to classroom use, these
case studies help bridge the complicated gap between students,
academics, and practitioners in the field, by promoting critical
thinking and responsible action.
