Research: The Society Library devotes substantial effort to researching information about all points of view on complex social and political issues. This includes identifying the arguments, claims, sentiments, evidence, and data found within scholarly articles and datasets, government reports, documentaries, news, television, books, textbooks, podcasts, classroom materials, websites, and various social media. This content is organized into an online reference library through various technological and manual means. The content is labelled and sorted so public users can easily access and discern informed points of view from mal-informed points of view without the necessity to censor information. The library exists to assist the public in searching for the truth in an unbiased and rigorous manner through access to structured information online. The Society Library accesses and acquires large datasets from various institutional partners and repositories. 0 118890 Information Delivery: Once information is thoroughly researched, organized, and published in the library, the Society Library brings both the information itself and information literacy programming directly to the public. This is done through: 1. An online, browsable library database for active learners to easily access all information on social and political issues. 2. Videos and visualizations that summarize the content in the library for passive learners to access. 3. Educational programs, such as internships, in which we teach our rigorous research methodology and logic-based media literacy curriculum. 4. Educational content, including written publications, educational videos, instructional demos, and tutorials. 5. Partnerships that may apply or disseminate the data through other research and educational projects for public benefit. 0 28467 Research and Consultative Services: To support the sustainability of the organization, the Society Library provides research and consulting services based on its expertise, methodology, and technological capabilities. These services include: building content databases, fact-checking services, building online FAQs, analyzing legislation, and consulting to improve the logical decision-making capabilities of groups and individuals.

The Society Library is not interested in advancing any partisan agenda whatsoever.
