Information For Social Change

Information for Social Change (ISC) is an international, volunteer-based association, whose primary mission is to debate and comment on issues of social justice, censorship, freedom and ethics in the library and information context. Information for Social Change can be described as a radical organisation, insofar as one of the group's aims is to debate and where necessary challenge dominant paradigms or perspectives in the library and information sector. The scope and remit of Information for Social Change is not however limited to the traditional library sector but encompasses a broad spectrum of issues impacting access to information, information literacy and the wider role of information users in society. Information for Social Change has two member-driven organs - a Web site (http://www.libr.org/isc ) and the ISC journal which is published (twice a year) via the internet. The international standard serial number for the ISC journal is: 1364-694X (print) | 1756-901X (online). Information for Social Change is an Organisation in Liaison with the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP).
