Reviews
"The book's central chapters explore the intersections between intellectual freedom and the often competing values of freedom of expression, information access, privacy, and copyright, and the two concluding chapters focus on their implications for information professionals. While the inclusion of discussion questions and annotated lists of recommended reading will make this a natural fit for MLIS courses, Knox's concise approach ensures its usefulness for librarians and library workers at all levels." -- Booklist, "An excellent addition to ALA Neal-Schuman's 'Foundations' series ... Some parts of this book may appeal to students and academics interested in brushing up on current definitions of key concepts related to intellectual freedom: freedom of expression, access to information, censorship, and privacy. Other parts of this book contextualize intellectual freedom within the library profession and will be best appreciated by librarians grappling with professional ethics in a changing socio-political landscape ... Knox offers a primer on intellectual freedom for library students and librarians alike, succinctly revealing the complexity of this timely topic." -- Library Journal
