PFE Fall 2013 Reflections
Kelly A. LeMeur
Long, long ago - a monastic curse warned
“For him that stealeth, or borroweth and returneth not, this book from its owner . . . let it change into a serpent in his hand and rend him. Let him be struck with palsy, and all his members blasted. Let him languish in pain crying aloud for mercy, and let there be no surcease to his agony till he sing in dissolution. Let bookworms gnaw his entrails in token of the Worm that dieth not, and when at last he goeth to his final punishment, let the flames of Hell consume him forever.”
(Greenblatt, 2011, p. 30.)

Intellectual Freedom
● Tell the truth (illuminate, don’t obfuscate).● Welcome everyone.● Evaluate information and check sources.● Question authority.● Apply Ranganathan's first law, books are for
use, to all sources of information.
(Ranganathan, 1929/2006)
Privacy● Provide tools for thought, not thoughts.● Mind our own business.● Do not gossip● Do our own work and encourage others to do
their own work.Goal: become more familiar with Warren and Brandeis’s 1890 Harvard Review article “The Right to Privacy”
Professional Service + Intellectual Freedom + Privacy
