The ASIS&T posts are going to get a little lighter, I think I was
less interested in the second part of the conference than the sessions
I attended in the first part. This particular session was at the end of the day for me so I think I was a little tired too.
I didn't take many notes in this session, but here are the speakers and the topics they presented:
Andrea Japzon - Personal Values and Digital Artifacts in Personal Information Management
Kenneth Fleischman - The Ethical Implications of Values in Computational Modeling
Michael Khoo - Privacy Values and Digital Libraries: A Sociotechnical Analysis
I did take some notes during Michael's presentation. He talked about values and privacy, first by defining values, which he said were a set of socially shared norms. He also described privacy as a state or condition of being alone, undisturbed, or free from public attention, as a matter of choice or right (actually if my memory serves me this is the OED definition of privacy). He stated that new technologies prompt us to rethink the idea of what privacy is.
Light update today. It's a good thing, I have some other school writing to do.
