*Metadata and DEI Values -- Core Metadata IG 2021 Annual Program*

*The Core Metadata Interest Group (Core Metadata IG) is pleased to announce
its annual program, which will take place on 11 AM Central, June 26th.
This group facilitates active conversation among librarians and information
professionals about projects, ideas, and practical use cases related to
library metadata. *

*This year’s annual program will be in the format of an interactive
discussion focusing on the intersection of metadata and diversity, equity,
inclusion, and accessibility. This open format is an opportunity to
encourage community participation, provide a platform to express concerns
and ask questions, and offer solutions to support each other.*

*Discussion may include but is not limited to:*

   - *Creating metadata for equity, diversity, and inclusion*
   - *Problematic Metadata Management (e.g. embedded biases, harmful
   language, “decolonizing”, )*
   - *Accessibility of metadata creation software*

*If you have any questions please contact Mingyan Li (**mli5 at uic.edu
