Thomas Pack writes the After Hours column for Information Today newsmagazine, which features a quick look at sites info pros might not know about, but should. It reflects when readers would typically have a chance to dig into the sites covered—that is, after work hours. Here are edited excerpts from Pack's columns from January/February 2022 to November/December 2022, which have been lightly edited and condensed for the web. |

| Why a Code of Ethics Is Necessary in a Professional Environment |
|
by Amber Boedigheimer
|
| Law librarians, public librarians, other information professionals, and attorneys all have one element in common: the need for a code of ethics. For librarians, a code of ethics is a document that translates the values of intellectual freedom that define the profession of, for example, librarianship, into principles that can be utilized by people of that career as a framework for managing conditions concerning moral conflicts. |
