There is some information on the ‘Privacy’ page of Higher
Education Library Technology (HELibTech) http://helibtech.com/Privacy
The page references the General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR) as well as the NISO principles and a recent library Technology report by
Marshall Breeding. Privacy was on the agenda at last month’s ALA conference and
there are links to some ALA resources too.
HELibTech is a free and open (CC licensed) community resource.
Anyone can edit so do feel free to add any further useful resources. It would be
great if Josephine could put the results of her survey on HELibTech too .....
Very best

Subject: Due to new data protection law (GDPR) is more support needed
for LIS staff?
***With apologies for cross posting!***
I am looking into data protection and privacy in library and
information services.
I am trying to find out what LIS professionals think of data
protection – do you think it's important? Do you wish you knew more about it?
Do you think it's relevant to you?
There will be some upcoming changes in legislation (GDPR)
and I would like to gage whether more support could be offered to staff and how
interested, confident or engaged LIS professionals are on data protection and
user privacy.
I have made a short survey to gather perspectives and
awareness which should take 10 minutes to answer:
Just to emphasise I'd like to know what everyone thinks even
if you think you don't know anything about it!
I am happy to share my findings to the group or individuals
if you are interested in the results.
Thanks for reading!
