1 post | 1 read
"Examines library discovery systems to show how the algorithms that power them are not the neutral and unbiased systems that they are claimed to be, but are affected by the human biases of programmers and the commercial influences of their production"--

This short book used way too much work from other writers and much of the original data should have been reported via graphs and not written description. An interesting look at various ways that discovery systems in libraries are biased and the programming behind those systems and how the programming is biased. 1.5/5 stars.
