Abstract
This Special Issue was developed in collaboration with the IFLA Advisory Committee on Freedom of Access to Information and Freedom of Expression (FAIFE) to mark the 20th anniversary of the IFLA Statement on Libraries and Intellectual Freedom. Guest Editors Barbara Jones and Stuart Hamilton solicited manuscripts which examined the impact of the statement on the library profession over the past twenty years. With an introductory essay from Alex Byrne, the issue feature seven essays, case studies, and articles that add to our understanding of the impact of the IFLA statement while seeking to understand the nature of information freedom in a period challenged by new technologies and social phenomena that are transforming the ways in which people create, use, and disseminate information.
