Register
early and save your seat for "Diverse, Inclusive, and Equitable
Metadata,” an ALCTS Virtual Preconference prior to 2017 ALA Annual
Conference
How are metadata
creators developing methods to encourage the creation of metadata
that represents diverse points of view? How does using sources of
authority control such as LCSH contribute to misrepresentation of
cultural heritage materials? Are our digital libraries equitable? The
two-day virtual preconference Diverse,
Inclusive, and Equitable Metadata will
answer these questions and provide a venue for sharing ideas to
promote cultural competencies and inclusivity in the metadata
process.
