Valuing Privacy in a Surveillance Society
Librarians often encounter data as a research product and we work to
convey its value to society through effective data management and
sharing. We less frequently consider data as it is produced through myriad
digital environments, often for commodification purposes or in ways that
threaten the privacy of individuals or groups. This talk will discuss how
data generation, capture, and commodification are topics that librarians
should be engaging with in order to contribute to an informed and
engaged society.
Yasmeen Shorish is the Data Services Coordinator and an Associate
Professor at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She seeks
to enhance the knowledge and awareness of data information literacy on
campus, which includes the discovery, management, and curation of data,
as well as instruction in the methodologies for such. Her research interests
are in data management education, changes in scholarly communication,
and data curation. She's been heavily involved in data management
education efforts within ACRL. In all things, she believes that active
librarianship means being a part of the fight for social justice.

“What Happens When | Log Off?”: Data Privacy Literacy in the Library
(resource list)
Library staff may not be technologists, but we are educators as well as
tech “translators” for our patrons. How can we teach ourselves and others
about online privacy and security? How can we better understand the
layers that influence data privacy in practice at the library? We'll take a
look at the Data Privacy Project and NYC Digital Safety curricula and talk
about data flows, risk assessment, and why and how to do trainings for
library staff.
Melissa Morrone is Supervising Librarian in the Shelby White and Leon
Levy Information Commons at Brooklyn Public Library. She worked on the

Endangered Data & Environmental Justice in Upstate NY
Endangered Data Week is a new, collaborative effort, coordinated across
campuses, nonprofits, libraries, citizen science initiatives, and cultural
heritage institutions, to shed light on public datasets that are in danger of
being deleted, repressed, mishandled, or lost. Recently, Colgate University
hosted a community forum with representatives from Madison County and
the State of New York to discuss public access to environmental and
public health data sets. This talk will provide an overview of the event, how
librarians and faculty members can partner at the intersection of data and
environmental justice, and responsibilities inherent in community
outreach.
Joshua Finnell is an Associate Professor and Head of Research &
Instruction in the University Libraries at Colgate University. He is a member
of the steering committee for the DMPTool and has served on the planning
committee for both the Digital Library Forum and the Research Data
Access & Preservation Summit. Joshua is also active in several interest
groups within the Research Data Alliance, such as Repository Platforms for
Research Data and Education and Training on Handling of Research Data.
Andy Pattison is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies at
Colgate University. His research and teaching interests include
