INTRODUCTION
The UW-Milwaukee Center for Information Policy Research, in partnership with Data & Society, along with the American
Library Association’s Offi ce of Intellectual Freedom and the New York Public Library, was awarded a National Leadership
Grants for Libraries award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) for the project “Library Values &
Privacy in our National Digital Strategies: Field guides, Convenings, and Conversations.” A series of gatherings were
held throughout 2017-2018 that brought together library practitioners, privacy advocates, and technology experts to
discuss and debate a national roadmap for a digital privacy strategy for libraries. The culminating event -- the Library
Values and Privacy Summit -- was held in New York City bringing together privacy experts from within and outside
libraries and sparked discussions on key privacy-related issues and possible paths forward.Click here to edit the content
