CFP: ALCTS Virtual Pre-conference 2017 – Diverse, Inclusive, and Equitable Metadata

From the CFP:

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? This virtual program provides a venue for sharing ideas to promote cultural competencies and inclusivity in the metadata process…The Virtual Preconference will take place the week of June 5th, with each session starting at 1pm Central Time.
