Privacy Policies

Archived since: May, 2019

Description:

Libraries have a long tradition of protecting the privacy of patrons. When the contents of library collections was only print, librarians did things such as purge transaction records upon return of physical items. Libraries continue that practice for print items, but as more of our collection is licensed electronic resources hosted by a third party, we are finding that our traditional reader privacy approach is insufficient. As part of the Privacy-as-a-Service Cornell University Library is developing, we will be doing much more to monitor third party handling of patron data. This web archiving collection provides us with a method for collecting privacy statements from vendors automatically, today and into the future.

Many artists and works represented online are indispensable to the history of digital media art; however, web sites are ephemeral and artworks posted on websites and its documentation frequently disappear. The insecurity of access to these materials presents serious obstacles to teaching courses on the history of digital media art. To facilitate future scholarship and classroom teaching, Cornell University Library is preserving and making accessible selected websites identified as important in understanding the history of digital media art. The items in this collection are intended for use in the teaching of Digital Media Art at Cornell University.
