Kia ora koutou,

 

CatSIG is looking for expressions of interest in presenting at a Professional Development Day we’d like to hold at the end of May 2020.

 

Various topics emerged from our recent survey which people would like to hear about.

 

·           Are you a special format or serials cataloguer, who would be interested in sharing you knowledge about cataloguing these resources using RDA?

·           Have you been researching or working with linked data?

·           Have you been involved in some research or a project around cataloguing or metadata you would like to share?

·           Would you like to share your experiences using different metadata formats?

·           Do you have experience managing data sets that would be useful to share with other cataloguers?

·           Would you like to present on subject headings, general RDA cataloguing or working with born digital?

 

Please let us know what other topics you might be interested is hearing about or presenting on.

 

Presentations can be either hands on workshops or seminars, with sessions being around 40 minutes in length. 5-10 minute lightening talks or a panel session on short updates, changes or other points for discussion will be considered also.

 

If you are interested in doing a presentation please email catsigcommittee@gmail.com by 15 February with an abstract.

 

We haven’t decided yet where the day might be held, but are planning towards an in-person event which can be recorded.

 

We look forward to hearing from you.
