Relations at ALA Annual in Washington D.C.:
Last Fair Deal Gone Down: Ethical Considerations in Library Vendor Relations
A Program sponsored by the ACRL Committee on Ethics
Sunday, June 27th, 1:30 - 3:30 p.m.
Capital Hilton - Massachusetts Room
Vendor relations within libraries are critical and multifaceted,
impacting everyone involved. Relationships can be institutional or
individual in nature, involving purchases, sponsorships and grants. In
the tightly woven library world, personal friendships exist and many
colleagues have worked in both libraries and as vendors. What are the
ethical considerations when negotiating contracts, sponsoring or
attending events, accepting grants? How do personal ethics
intersect/inform professional ethics? A panel of speakers will discuss
these and other issues.
Speakers:
- Ivy Anderson, Director, Collection Development and Management,
California Digital Library
- Kittie S. Henderson, Director, Academic and Law Divisions, EBSCO
Information Services
- Margaret Mellinger, Engineering Librarian (Project Lead, Library à la
Carte), Oregon State University Libraries
- Moderator: Keith Powell, Head of Acquisitions, University of
California, Irvine
This will be an interactive forum with lots of audience Q&A.... we look
forward to seeing you there!
