One of the evolving roles that have emerged for school librarians is teaching digital citizenship. This includes not only self-image and identity, but also Internet safety, digital footprint and reputation, privacy and security, information literacy, cyberbullying, and creative credit and copyright (Common Sense Education, 2014). The four research articles in this issue of School Libraries Worldwide focuses on these themes.
