Metadata Justice in Oklahoma Libraries & Archives Symposium
About
In the summer of 2022, the Metadata & Cataloging department at the University of Central Oklahoma committed to hosting an annual virtual symposium to connect our library and archives colleagues across the state of Oklahoma for a virtual symposium to discuss how metadata justice can be incorporated into our shared work of creating description and access for library and archival resources. Borrowing from our friends at OU, metadata justice "refers to the use of accurate and appropriate language in metadata systems like library catalogs."
Our intention with this event is to create a space for folks to share their ideas and to create a support network for those interested in this important work in our state's libraries and archives.
