*Monday June 15 2015* the *OpenITP Techno-Activism Third Monday
<http://hacktivism.eventbrite.com/>* presented *Libraries, Digital Privacy,
& Data Literacy
<http://www.eventbrite.com/e/libraries-digital-privacy-data-literacy-ta3m-june-tickets-17266153530>*
- a conversation about the impact of surveillance and data collection on
citizens, specifically on disadvantaged communities. Learn more about the
privacy and data issues that librarians face in their work and new efforts
to empower them to address these issues. Libraries are among the most
trusted institutions in their communities, making librarians uniquely
positioned to prepare patrons for the privacy challenges brought about by
the pervasiveness of data sharing, profiling, DRM, third-party platforms,
and surveillance technologies. Individuals with the greatest digital
literacy needs are also the most vulnerable to abuses of personal data,
creating an even more urgent need for libraries to address these issues.
Librarians are prepared to meet this need. Join us for an informal
conversation highlighting new efforts afoot to train librarians in digital
privacy and data literacy. We are bringing together librarians, policy
advocates, technologists, and the communities they all serve to further
bridge not just the digital divide but the privacy digital divide.
