In June 1996, our Center received a grant from the National Science
Foundation to put our extensive collection of codes of ethics on the
web. We include those codes of ethics of professional societies, corporations,
government, and academic institutions, of the over 850 codes we have
in our paper archive, who gave us permission
to include their code. Earlier versions of codes of ethics of some
organizations represented are available so researchers can study the
development of codes. A literature review, an introduction to the
codes, and a User Guide are included. The production of this site
was accomplished in collaboration with IIT's Instructional Multimedia
Center.
