This semi-annual virtual gathering offered ample opportunity for questions and conversations with participants. During the first hour, we discussed efforts related to diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as our collective work toward more respectful and inclusive description. After a short break, we discussed updates to OCLC cataloging and metadata services, WorldCat quality initiatives, and much more.
