- Abstract
- Looks at reasons for the renaissance of the ethical dimension in librarianship, including the need to recover the lost vocabulary of ethics in order to resolve issues of value. Considers the complexity and confusion created by automation and the shortcomings of native moral instincts in coping with these: as well as how the increasing numbers of people being employed in professional positions leading to freedom in decision making also reveals the need for guidance from an ethical code
