Kia ora koutou, CatSIG unite – we’ve been given a chance to feature NZ cataloguers in the next Cataloging and Classification Quarterly<http://catalogingandclassificationquarterly.com/>. I’ve just had an email from Bobby Bothman, who is a Library Services Professor at Minnesota State University: You write at an opportune time for me, because a colleague and I are working on a theme issue for Cataloging and Classification Quarterly. We are looking for leaders in the cataloguing world living or deceased, who have had a significant impact on cataloguing and classification. We have a good list of names from Europe and North America, but we are missing names from most of the rest of the world. Right now we are just compiling names. Would you happen to know of a few people in New Zealand or elsewhere in Oceania and Australia who might make good candidates? I would appreciate your input and/or the names of anyone who might also be able to provide insights. I’ve only been around in the cataloguing scene for a couple of years, so I was hoping some of our more experienced cataloguers might have some suggestions? Any input would be most welcome! Kia kaha i te reo Māori; kia pai ō koutou Wiki o te Reo Māori.

Forwarded on behalf of Nina Whittaker From: Nina Whittaker <nwhittaker(a)aucklandmuseum.com> Sent: Monday, 14 September 2020 9:15 AM To: 'catsig(a)ecs.vuw.ac.nz' <catsig(a)ecs.vuw.ac.nz> Subject: Cataloguing Māori Subject Headings - resource Kia ora koutou, I hope you are all doing well. To celebrate Te Wiki o te reo Māori, I’ve worked with out Mātauranga Māori Advisor Geraldine to write an article showing how you can use Māori Subject Headings across a diverse range of books. We chose ten super varied books from our collections, assigned Ngā Upoko Tukutuku<https://natlib.govt.nz/librarians/nga-upoko-tukutuku>, and then wrote about that process of finding the right headings, and what it means in terms of antiracism and decolonisation. You can use Māori Subject Headings in MARC using 650 | $2 reo - there’s also a big bibliography, so I hope you find it interesting. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, comments, or synergies! https://www.aucklandmuseum.com/discover/stories/blog/2020/lets-get-reo I hope you are all staying safe and taking good care.

Information on the RSC Meeting in October 2020
by Anoushka McGuire 30 Jul '20

30 Jul '20

Hello, colleagues. Apologies if you receive this via multiple lists. The following announcement was posted today on the RSC website: The in-person meeting of the RDA Steering Committee planned for October 2020 at the National Library of Israel has been shifted to a virtual meeting format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The RSC thanks the National Library for their invitation and looks forward to holding our annual in-person meeting in Jerusalem at some point in the future. The RSC’s October meeting has been transformed into a two-week virtual meeting (12-15 October and 20-23 October), which will use a mix of asynchronous and video meeting styles. Four video calls will be scheduled during these two weeks for interactive discussions. These four video calls will be staggered across time zones so that members from all regions share the joy of a middle-of-the-night call. Observers are welcome to attend the public portions of the video calls. The agenda items for these calls, as well as the specific dates and times, will be published on the RSC website in mid-September. Observers will be asked to register with the RSC Secretary, and space will be limited. As usual, the RSC does not plan to publish the recordings of its in-person meetings, which are captured for the purpose of creating accurate minutes. Agendas<http://rda-jsc.org/RSCmeetingagendas> for the asynchronous meetings likewise will be published on the RSC website in mid-September. It is not possible to have observers at an asynchronous meeting due to software constraints. Information about the discussion and decisions arising from this meeting will be available in due course from the Outcomes document and the Minutes<http://rda-rsc.org/RSCminutes>.
