These core values, which occasionally have led librarians to confrontation with law enforcement, are embedded in our professional ethics. The American Library Association?s Privacy Toolkit demarcates a broad territory for the profession to safeguard: ?In libraries, the right to privacy is the right to open inquiry without having the subject of one?s interest examined or scrutinized by others? (Privacy and Confidentiality: Library Core Values ). Nevertheless, patron data can now be scrutinized not just by FBI agents with secret warrants, but also by database and e-book vendors, social media companies, and Internet marketers. The digital nature of today?s information sources has allowed for mass collection of patron data--as demonstrated by the NSA?s covert collection of telephone and Internet records. Our profession has been slow to respond. In this new technological and political landscape, which privacy violations pose a threat to our mission of promoting free speech and free thought? How can librarians convince those in power that patron privacy is crucial to our institutions and our communities? Can we negotiate contracts with vendors that protect reader privacy? How should we talk to our students about these issues, and what can we learn from them about the future of privacy? The LACUNY Institute seeks proposals that explore all aspects of privacy in libraries, with a special emphasis on academic settings. We welcome proposals from those inside and outside the profession. This year, we will feature two kinds of presentations: *Paper Presentations* (20 minutes) The Institute will include several moderated panel presentations, which may be historical, theoretical, legal, or practical in nature. Please include time for questions and discussion. A few examples include: ? Library Code of Ethics and its relevance today ? Current laws and precedents relating to privacy ? The information economy and user data ? Predictive analytics ? Assessment and student privacy ? The Dark Web *Lightning Presentations* (10 minutes) At the close of the Institute, attendees will disperse to a number of simultaneous lightning presentations. These should be highly practical in nature and focused on a single, specific issue. The goal is to provide attendees with concrete steps for action. Please build in substantial time for questions and discussion, and plan to bring handouts or other takeaways. A few examples include: ? Lesson plans for teaching students about privacy ? How to read vendor contract*s* and negotiate for privacy rights ? Privacy-protecting alternatives to common tools and websites (e.g., ownCloud, DuckDuckGo) ? Setting up a Tor relay ? Proven steps for promoting privacy initiatives among faculty and administrators Please submit proposals for paper and lightning presentations, including a 300-500 word abstract, to http://lacuny.org/institute-call-for-proposals/ by *January 23, 2015*. Questions may be directed to Jennifer.Poggiali at lehman.cuny.edu.
