Representations of Gender and Sexuality in Metadata

Practical Approaches to Reparative Description Workshop Series: Representations of Gender and Sexuality in Metadata Thursday, April 18, 2024, at 1p ET Capturing information about gender and sexuality in descriptive metadata often surfaces questions and unique considerations about how to effectively maximize exposure of diverse collections without mislabeling or putting members of vulnerable communities at increased risk. At this presentation, attendees will hear a variety of perspectives on strategies for how to approach the capture of this information, as well as how to implement existing resources to help enhance collection metadata.
