LOEX 2026

Grab your compass and chart a course toward privacy literacy (PL) to navigate this new horizon of information literacy!

PL is an emerging area of library instruction. Research indicates librarians need resources to grow their PL practice. This session debuts educator resources developed by a national forum, including a Framework comprising learner standards and practitioner competencies, Roadmap to PL Programming, and PL Self-Study Guidebook.

Developed through participatory workshops, working groups, calls for feedback, and expert review, these resources support the planning, delivery, and assessment of PL in libraries. This project was made possible in part by the IMLS.

Participants will:
1. Apply the privacy literacy practitioner resources, including the Framework for Privacy Literacy, Roadmap to Privacy Literacy Programming in the Library, and Privacy Literacy Self-Study Guidebook, to advocate for, plan, implement, and assess privacy literacy education and library instruction.
