Core webinar: EDI Strategies in Metadata and Cataloging: An Exploration of
strategies and discussions

Date: Wednesday, October 26, 2022

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description: This webinar will examine EDI strategies and challenges in
Metadata and Cataloging. We will first investigate what EDI is and why it
is essential to this field of Librarianship. Next, we will explore a brief
historical timeline that shaped the events of EDI in Metadata and
Cataloging. After exploring its origins, we will examine the strategies
other academic institutions have formulated, particularly our work here at
Clemson University with the Digital Collections. This webinar aims to
explore, analyze, and understand EDI techniques in Librarianship and how
they can be added or addressed in the audience's collections. Also, we hope
that this webinar will create networking opportunities among various
librarians who attend or contribute to the current conversation.

Learning outcomes:

At the end of this webinar, the attendees will be able to:

   -

   Learn how to conduct EDI strategies in Metadata and Cataloging.
   -

   Learn about the challenges and obstacles with this work and how to
   overcome them.
   -

   Be able to collaborate with other institutions in the field with EDI
   work.

   and Cataloging for future iteration.
