Harassment Files
The ABA announced a new code of conduct for association meetings and events. The code will apply to all participants, including “booksellers, ABA staff, exhibitors, speakers/presenters, guests, sponsors, volunteers, and all affiliated attendees.” On the list of behaviors that violate the code: offensive verbal comments; inappropriate physical contact; sexual propositions; unwelcome sexual attention; off-color or obscene jokes, remarks, or gestures; and more. Anyone who violates the code “may, in the judgment and discretion of ABA, be asked to stop; may be expelled from an ABA event, without refund if applicable; may be prevented from attending future ABA events; and may have ABA membership and future participation privileges revoked.”
