Presentation on University of Central Oklahoma Library’s Inclusive Metadata Initiative activities which include the creation of an Inclusive Metadata Statement, the creation of a form to report offensive or outdated terminology in library metadata, specific strategies for remediating offensive/outdated terminology, problematic classification, and providing more inclusive language in library metadata. In addition to retrospective projects, the library’s Systems division is working on creating a culture that supports inclusive metadata practices, both within the library and regionally in Oklahoma—which presents its own challenges in a deeply conservative state.
