Sensitive dataUsually, data exchange is managed by an agreement between two parties.
•How will this arrangement change when the ALA becomes the middle man?•Should the ALA act as a broker, or as a conduit?

•To deliver this we need to have effective means of creating, improving, maintaining, managing and delivering this data to users.•We need stable, authorative and recognisable custodial agencies for the various core datasets, particularly of names•We need standards for ensuring that there is consistency in what users get when they ask for a piece of data or a dataset
