I heard they were going to rename part of Ealing Broadway as Bell End. On a serious note, there are laws governing confidentiality of information that's collected and held by the library service. You can see the requirement at: https://www.ealing.gov.uk/info/201219/libraries/2475/ealing_libraries_privacy_notice/1 This governs employees of Ealing Council. How is this information dealt with when it's a service run by volunteers? What happens if there's someone who might bear you a grudge and now has access to private information? Who is overseeing the safeguarding of this information? Given that Facebook has just been fined $5billion by the US Government for breaches of privacy, what's the score with Ealing Council and its library service!? |
