NISO launched a project in 2015 to develop a consensus framework for
privacy of patron data in library, publisher and vendor systems, with input
from stakeholders and leaders within the information systems community.
This talk will provide an overview and next steps for the now-published
framework, a set of principles for how suppliers of end-user systems for
content or services should address concerns around privacy.


*The NISO Annual Meeting & Update will take place on Sunday, January 10*
(1:00 - 2:30 p.m. in Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, Room 257A),
where you can hear the latest news about NISO's current efforts, including
standards, recommended practices and community meetings covering many areas
of interest to the library community. [Link to session in ALA Scheduler
