Hi all,
In Wednesday’s call I learned that the Data Doubles team has published a new article. It’s called “Questions of Trust: A Survey of Student Expectations and Perspectives on Library Learning Analytics”.
https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/718605
Highly recommend it to you and others in the library privacy community. Here are some passages I pulled and added to my Zotero library when I was reading it. Thanks to Dorothea and her colleagues for doing
this important work.
Adam
“Survey questions addressing students’ overall feelings about privacy revealed that students almost universally considered privacy to be important, especially to protect against
intrusions in their life (94%) and to develop their identity (79%) and, to a lesser degree, to develop intellectual ideas (71%) and personal relationships (68%).“
“However, only 11% of students considered their internet browsing history to be “completely public,” whereas 50% perceived it to be “completely private.” In comparison, 93% of students
considered their banking information “completely private.” Students generally viewed financial information and health records to be the most private types of information.“
“Given that half (50%) of students felt their internet browsing history should be completely private, we question whether students can accurately identify when they are browsing
the internet versus the library resources that they consider less sensitive. Because students routinely access library materials using third-party systems such as Google Scholar or directly access library-licensed databases such as JSTOR, the border between
library and nonlibrary systems may be difficult for students to perceive. Librarians should consider that students may desire and believe data collected about them to be more private than they report.“
“Although libraries are often considered among the most trusted institutions in the United States, our research suggests that academic libraries do not always conduct their operations
in ways that students feel are respectful of the privacy of their PII. Transparency, education, and outreach can help academic libraries practice and advocate for strong data privacy policies for library use and thus increase students’ trust.“
