“Always do the right thing.” – “Do the Right Thing”, Spike Lee

As the characters in Spike Lee’s film learn, the “right thing” isn’t always the first one that comes to mind, nor is it the easiest. This webpage is a gathering of resources on codes of ethics and on ethical practices in the professions, in corporate culture, and in public service that will help us all to see what that “right thing” could be at work. You may also find interesting material in the library’s webpage on Management of Safety and Technical Risks.

Note: None of the HQ library staff are attorneys.
