The proliferation of search engine optimization (SEO), Web analytics, and user tracking results in much greater leakage of user data across the Web, particularly into ad-sharing and social networks, while at the same time libraries seek to utilize these identical tools to construct their own content recommending and service integrations that make use of online libraries as seamless as other well-designed Internet sites, while generating new data that are increasingly susceptible to hacking.
Swords, Dragons, and Spells: Libraries and User Privacy, a project briefing presented at CNI's December 2014 member meeting, explored these conflicting privacy challenges and surveyed the real-world data environments that libraries are working in. Panelists were Peter Brantley (NYPL), Marshall Breeding (consultant), Eric Hellman (Glejar), and Gary Price (infoDOCKET.com).
