    Abstract
    In this global information age, accessing, disseminating, and controlling information is an increasingly important aspect of human life. Often, these interests are expressed in the language of human rights-for example, rights to expression, privacy, and intellectual property. As the discipline concerned with "facilitating the effective communication of desired information between human generator and human user" (Belkin, 1975, p. 22), library and information science (LIS) has a central role in facilitating communication about human rights and ensuring the respect for human rights in information services and systems. This paper surveys the literature at the intersection of LIS and human rights. To begin, an overview of human rights conventions and an introduction to human rights theory is provided. Then the intersections between LIS and human rights are considered. Three central areas of informational human rights-communication, privacy, and intellectual property-are discussed in detail. It is argued that communication rights in particular serve as a central linchpin in the system of human rights.

    Abstract
    A classification scheme is more predictable-and, thus, more effective-if it has a consistent structure. In this paper, a number of (defeasible) consistency rules for constructing classification schemes are identified (e.g., division by a single type of attribute, division at a single level of abstraction, horizontal consistency, vertical consistency). An explicit statement of these rules, not all of which have been explicitly codified in the library and information science literature, should be useful to the developers of retrieval systems. In addition, some preliminary suggestions are made regarding how these rules might be used to define a measure of the consistency of a classification scheme

    Abstract
    Many of the most pressing issues in information ethics-informational privacy, surveillance, intellectual property, access to information, and the distribution of information resources-can only be addressed at the level of global politics. This paper develops an approach to theorizing about political questions of concern to information ethics. It begins by situating a political philosophy of information within the broader field of ethics and defending a theoretical approach that is practical, person-centered, and pluralistic. The method of dialogic public reason, as articulated by John Rawls and supplemented with insights from Jürgen Habermas, is described and defended. It is argued that dialogic public reason provides a way to justify political principles in a diverse global context. The paper concludes by relating the idea of dialogic public reason to international human rights. The putative human right to intellectual property is criticized on the grounds that it does not pass the test of public reason.
