Episode 082 - Sarah Hartman-Caverly and Alexandria Chisholm

Abstract

his episode features two librarians who have developed digital privacy toolkit they call Digital Shred. Sarah Hartman-Caverly is a reference and instruction librarian and Alexandria Chisholm is an assistant librarian, both at Penn State Berks. They both have a healthy interest in digital privacy, and they developed a series of workshops for students on managing one’s digital identity. Those workshops have spawned a website with a bounty of digital privacy resources for students and librarians and other educators. One of our favorite librarians, Melissa Mallon, talks with Sarah and Alex about their entry into the world of digital privacy, how they help students understand the value of digital privacy, and the kinds of resources they’ve collected for Digital Shred.
