Andrew McDiarmid will participate in a panel on Reader Privacy: Should Library Privacy Standards Apply in the Digital World?

As reading expands from a world of print publications to electronic formats, can and should we retain traditional notions of reader privacy? Just what is the privacy we have come to expect as readers of books, and do these notions of privacy translate effectively in the world of Google Book Search, the Kindle, the Sony Reader — or to the many pages of text we read online daily?

Andrew McDiarmid will participate in a panel on "Reader Privacy: Should Library Privacy Standards Apply in the Digital World?" at the UNC School of Law, Room 4085.
