The Literature of American Library History, 2003–2005 Abstract A number of years have elapsed since publication of the last essay of this sort, so this one will cover three years of historical writings on American librarianship, 2003–5, instead of the usual two. We will have to see whether this new method becomes the norm or will ultimately be considered an aberration from the traditional approach. I do know that several years ago Donald G. Davis, Jr., and Michael Harris covered three years (1971–73) in their essay, and we all survived the experience. In preparing this essay I discovered that when another year of coverage is added the volume of writings to cover also grows impressively. A conservative estimate places the number of books and articles published in the years under review at more than two hundred items.

The first section, "Toward the Concept of Access," discusses: how ALA became a public service organization; extension and adult education; a federal role for libraries; the role of the library in the post-war world; and the federal aid era. The second section, "Downstream Access," addresses: literacy and lifelong learning; African Americans; ALA, outreach, and equity; people with disabilities; and services to poor and homeless people. The third section, "Protecting and Extending Access," covers: intellectual freedom and "Libraries: An American Value"; a conceptual foundation for a national information policy; "Freedom and Equality of Access to Information"; Special Committee on Freedom and Equality of Access to Information; "Your

Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Flora Elizabeth Reynolds dated June 14, 1999.

  • On Ethical Assessment: Locating and Applying the Core Values of Library and Information Science
    On Ethical Assessment: Locating and Applying the Core Values of Library and Information Science Scott W. H. Young Montana State University, USA Introduction In this paper, I provide a brief history of the development of values within Library and Information Studies (LIS), drawing on the literature of LIS, sociology, professionalism, value studies, and practical ethics. I begin by tracing the outlines of professional identity as a way of staking out a claim to values. I then turn to the definition and purpose of values, before enumerating the main values present in the LIS literature. Finally, I present an overview of the contemporary conversation and practical applications related to values, focusing on the American Library Association (ALA) Core Values of Librarianship. Defining a profession The ALA Glossary of Library and Information Science describes librarianship as “the profession devoted to applying theory and technology to the creation, selection, organization, management, preservation, dissemination, and utilization of collections of information in all formats.” Starting with this claim that library work is part of a profession, we can briefly examine the attributes that define a profession. To help illuminate these characteristics, we can look to the sociology literature. Greenwood outlines five basic attributes of a profession: systematic theory, authority, community sanction, ethical codes, and a culture.1 The analysis presented in this paper will focus primarily on the ethical code as a professional attribute. Greenwood describes an ethical code as a guide to occupational behavior that carries altruistic overtones and a public service-orientation. Such an ethical code can be enforced formally by a professional association empowered to censure members, or informally via pressure exerted from one colleague to another.
