Abstract: INFOETHICS, THE ETHICS OF information systems, can offer insights and methods to understand the problems which leaders in the information professions face.As moral agents (ethical selves) who assume responsibility in their personal, private, professional, and public lives, information professionals balance conflicting loyalties.In the workplace, they negotiate between the ideals and realities of their institutions and of the profession in making decisions.In the global information environment, leaders will be needed to use the tools of ethical analysis for shaping policy.
