"Privacy 101 for Librarians"

March 3 through May 5, 2003 OITP* will host an online e-mail tutorial on
privacy. Similar in format to the successful copyright, UCITA and licensing
tutorials offered in past years, the privacy tutorial will cover privacy
basics for library professionals in 20-25 brief, but informative
messages written by Leslie Harris, experienced lawyer, lobbyist and public
policy strategist in Washington, D.C.

Leslie is founder and president of Leslie Harris & Associates, and has been
a long-standing partner with ALA in defending civil liberties and protecting
library patron privacy.

The tutorial will address privacy expectations of library patrons and
practical ways to meet them; legal protections for library records and their
limitations; how technology has changed the way libraries must address
privacy; and privacy audits.
 
The tutorial course is FREE to ALA members, and only $25 for non-ALA
members. Signing up is easy.

1. Send an e-mail message to: listproc@ala.org

2. Leave the subject line blank.

3. In the body of the email type:

3rd, you will receive your first e-mail tutorial message on privacy and
libraries. You can read your messages when they arrive, save them for later,
or print them out, but we recommend reading the messages in the order that
they are received. Please note the email
tutorial is one-way communication. You will not be able to post to a
discussion list.

Non-ALA members can also receive the tutorial by sending a $25 check or
