Dept Support of the ZSR Librarians’ Assembly, Statement on Online Proctoring Services

“While we affirm the need to ensure academic integrity and protect academic freedom, as well as the need to meet the requirements of various accrediting bodies, we must place before all of these our commitment to a just and equitable learning environment that respects the privacy and the inherent dignity of all of our students. Online proctoring services are in direct conflict with this commitment and with our professional values as librarians.”

 

Because these online proctoring services are also in conflict with our professional values, we too commit not to use them.
