Users who wish to tailor the bibliography's contents to suit their own particular needs and interests can rearrange various sections and subsections into alternate organizational schemes. Those interested primarily in issues of moral and social responsibility for computer professionals may wish to bring together sources in appropriate sections of Parts III and V. For example, readers interested in issues of professional responsibility associated with designing current and future computer systems can group together entries in Sections 4.1, 5.1, and 14.3.

Since Part II of the bibliography is directed primarily to teaching courses in computing, ethics, and social responsibility, some may elect to skip over it. Readers interested in general references, however, may find it useful to combine sources listed in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 (of Part II) with those cited in Part I to create an expanded general reference section.

Readers interested in computer crime and computer abuse can bring together entries in Sections 9.4, 10, and 11.2. Users interested in personal privacy and social control, on the other hand, can combine entries in Sections 7.3, 8, 9.4, 12.3, and 12.4. Readers interested in the impact of computers and expert systems on the quality of work life, can focus their attention on the entries contained in Sections 6.2, 6.3, 7.2, 13.1 and 13.2. Those interested in the impact of computer technology on politics, democracy, and civil liberties can group together entries in sections 8.4, 9.4, and 12.4. Several alternative schemes can be devised, and readers are encouraged to reorganize the bibliography's contents in ways that best satisfy their personal and professional interests.
