Please join the SLA NY Chapter for a special happy hour, Thursday, November 20.
In addition to the usual networking, we will be featuring a frank and lively discussion on Workplace and Information and Ethics as part of SLA's 2008 focus on Ethics in the Workplace. The discussion will be lead by two of our colleagues from PricewaterhouseCoopers, Cathy Porta, Director, Third Party Content Management and Jeffrey Dreiblatt, Search Optimization Manager.
Some questions to be discussed:
1) What situations have occurred in your organization have raised "red flags" (i.e., ethical concerns) for you?
2) Does your organization (i.e., library, company) have an ethics policy?
3). Have you referred to another association's ethics policy in the past (e.g., ALA, SCIP)?
4). How would an Ethics Policy issued by SLA influence your actions as an information professional?
Prospective members, students and all colleagues are welcome. There is no charge to attend.
