Subject: [rdaoceania] Feedback on RSC/ReligionsWG/2024/1 requested

Kia ora,

The next meeting of the RDA Steering Committee begins on 15 July.

Ahead of that, the Religions Working Group have released a proposal to adjust instructions for the element Corporate body: preferred name of corporate body, to make them less Christian-based and more relevant to other religious communities. The paper can be seen at https://www.rdatoolkit.org/sites/default/files/uploads/RSC_ReligionsWG_2024_1_2.pdf

Given the late release of this proposal we have only a very short time period within which to respond with any feedback.

Can I please have any urgent comments on this proposal sent to me at charlotte@rdatoolkit.org no later than end of work day, Thursday 4 July so I can compile them into a formal response for release the week before the meeting?

Please note that if you notice something after this deadline you can still email me to raise issues verbally at the meeting itself.

ngā mihi,

Charlotte Christensen

Oceania region representative to the RDA Steering Committee
