Jumpstart Inclusive Cataloging

Making changes to your cataloging system can be daunting, but you're not alone.

Join us next month and learn practical tips for implementing

equity-centered cataloging in your library.

See what one past participant had to say:

"I have to say that this is some of the best content that I have listened to on the topic of inclusive cataloging. Each presentation was interesting and full of absolutely helpful, practical information that will be immediately usable in my library, and it inspired me to start in on projects that had previously seemed overwhelming. Thank you for providing this stellar content!" - Lara Phelps,

Technical Services Manager
