An information activist is someone who works to make information available to the general population. According to Anthony Molaro, "An information activist is a vigorous advocate of knowledge gained through study, communication, research or instruction". Information activism at libraries and among librarians began in the 1960s, when many libraries advocated for the of their clients. Their activism projects thereafter extended beyond library walls to advocate for issues such as and labour rights. With the advent of new information technologies and the information explosion of the late 20th century, information activism expanded in scope to include people who utilize information in the service of advocacy. Tactical Technology Collective has proposed a definition of information activism as “the strategic and deliberate use of information within a campaign” which specifically refers to the use of publicly available information in activist projects. Information activists take on many projects to work to remove barriers and provide access to knowledge for all people. Information activism can take on many different forms and be used in many different fields including in librarianship, in archiving, and in activist projects.

L'activisme de l'information constitue une forme de militantisme qui se pratique dans les milieux des bibliothèques et de l'archivistique. (fr) |
