内容説明

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.
