Abstract

Book review of: Data Feminism by Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren F. Klein, The MIT Press (2020). Data Feminism combines intersectional feminism and critical data studies to invite the reader to consider: “How can we use data to remake the world?” As non-profit organizations with a mandate to provide equitable access to non-neutral information and services, libraries and library workers are uniquely positioned to advance the principles laid out in Data Feminism.

Keywords: data science, data ethics, data feminism
