SUMMARY:RLUK25 Conference
DESCRIPTION:Champions of knowledge: Libraries as beacons of trust and integrity \nLibraries seek to build their practices on strong foundations of integrity\, critical thinking\, and ethical values. These foundations underpin a commitment to civic duty\, positioning libraries as highly trusted partners and authorities in their communities. \nIn an age of misinformation and disinformation\, maintaining information integrity is fundamental to a well-functioning society and democracy. The spread of false narratives\, fake news\, and censorship poses significant challenges that require a multifaceted approach to address. It is a complex challenge and one in which libraries play a crucial role. RLUK25 will explore the philosophical and pragmatic challenges for research libraries and their role in upholding the values of trust and integrity. \nRegister here.
