ALA’s Core division is holding their Interest Group Week this week. Sessions are free, but registration is required for each Zoom session. Schedule: https://www.ala.org/core/continuing-education/interest-group-week
As you peruse the schedule, do not let the interest group names fool you!!! Sessions are varied and often of much broader interest than the group name. For example, the MARC Formats Interest Group session includes the talk “With Great Power Come Great Responsibility: Democratizing Cultural Heritage Institutions (Or Lack Thereof)” (abstract: …University of Notre Dame’s Marble (Museum, Archives, Rare Books, and Library Exploration platform) project as a case study to explore how linked open data can enhance discovery of GLAM collections, as well as some of the ethical concerns preventing access)
In previous IG weeks, sessions have been recorded and made available shortly after.
