Popis: This paper aims to provide an introduction to the main concepts and resources of information ethics in Library and Information Science as well as to study different ethical issues. Students of Library and Information Science are often not capable of solving ethical problems they encounter in a workplace. For this reason it is important to alert them to some basic ethical issues that may be useful in their work environment. “Codes of professional ethics for library organizations are mainly intended to guide the behavior of library professionals. However, these codes serve other functions as well. In particular, these codes of profes-sional ethics inform the public about what library profes-sionals are committed to doing. “ (Fallis, 2007) This research will attempt to study the presence of information ethics in LIS programs and compare Slovenian and Croatian programs.
