[Michlib-l] Library Freedom Project: Privacy crash courses

[Meghan McGowan]

Hello fellow library workers!

I took the systems & policy crash course in the spring and am looking
forward to the programs & training course this fall - and this may be of
interest to some of you!

_________________________________________________________

Applications for the LFP Crash Course on Programs & Training are now open
at https://libraryfreedom.org/crashcourse/. This 10-week free course
focuses on privacy for library staff training and public programming in a
supportive, collaborative cohort environment. The course will cover topics
including how and what to teach in privacy trainings, and important areas
of focus like anti-doxxing, digital security for reproductive care, health
privacy, police surveillance, understanding artificial intelligence, and
more. The LFP Crash Courses are open to library workers at all levels and
in all roles, though this course is best for library workers who face the
public.

After completion, participants are invited to become part of the LFP
community, a group of more than 130 library workers from around the country
who work together and support each other on privacy initiatives. Some of
our recent projects include  - working with teens to make anti-surveillance
memes, fighting library vendor surveillance of immigrants, building an
anti-doxxing toolkit for at-risk library workers, and organizing LFP Camp,
a space for our members to work together and connect in person in an
outdoor environment.

Previous curricula for the Programs and Training Crash Course is here:

The LFP community and our training courses are unique in the library world,
collaborative, and social-justice oriented. FAQ and more information is on
the application website: https://libraryfreedom.org/crashcourse/.
Additional questions about this course can be directed to
alison at libraryfreedom.org. We hope you'll join us.
