Do we need to get consent to add members to KnowledgeShare?

Modified on Fri, 5 Sep at 9:09 AM

You do not need to ask for consent as long as the user has requested library services from you (eg library membership, current awareness, a literature search, or a training session). 


The basis of this data usage under GDPR is ‘legitimate interest’.


Consent is required if data will be shared with other users, and options for providing this consent are managed within KnowledgeShare after the Member logs in.
