White Paper and Webinar(s) on Digital Censorship

If you are looking for an update on your freedom to access information, we have two excellent resources right now:

  1. Congratulations to our own Jo Melinson, who — along with Connie Williams and Mary Ann Harlan — have done us proud by thinking through and writing a white paper: “Access to Online Subscription Content in K12 Schools through the School Library,” recently published in The Political Librarian.
  2. Tomorrow we all have a compelling opportunity to hear from Jim Duncan of the Colorado Library Consortium, Lindsey Kimery of the Tennessee Association of School Librarians, Emily Knox of the UIUC School of Information Sciences, and Sarah Lamdan of the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom will join Michelle Reed, Director of Programs at Library Futures, about what is up with digital censorship. The webinar is hosted by Library Futures, who are actually coming out with a report on this topic, as well. It is meaningful to see another group take on this important topic. You can register here.
