Skim the introductory material and then carefully read the ethical dilemma that a librarian working at the reference desk at a public library recently faced. What do you think the librarian decided to do? If you were in a similar situation, what would you do? ( http://www.globalethics.org/pub/toughchoices.html ) | ||
