Research by the University of Strathclyde has highlighted issues around censorship in public and school libraries in Scotland that affect provision of both paper and digital services. Evidence suggests that an over-riding factor is the lack of a coordinated national policy approach to censorship issues in libraries.
This event will present the evidence, consider professional ethical codes and practitioner experiences, and aims to propose workable solutions to take forward collaboratively after the session.
