This course has been an absolute game-changer for my career in the library sector. The content was engaging and well-structured, with a focus on practical ethics that I can apply in my day-to-day work. I particularly appreciated the modules on data privacy and intellectual freedom, which gave me a deeper understanding of the issues and helped me develop strategies to address them. The course materials were top-notch, with relevant readings, case studies, and real-world examples. I'm thrilled to have completed this course and highly recommend it to anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of library ethics.

I recently finished the Advanced Certificate in Library Ethics at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm so glad I did! The course exceeded my expectations in terms of content, delivery, and practical applicability. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, and the course materials were well-organized and up-to-date. I learned a lot about the ethical considerations involved in managing library collections, providing user services, and engaging with diverse communities. I've already started applying some of the practical skills I gained to my work as a librarian, and I feel more confident in my ability to navigate ethical challenges in the library environment.
