    Hi all,

    I wanted to let you know about the following free webinar that Lyrasis is hosting on April 27, 2023, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Eastern Time

    Removing Dewey Decimal Classification "Othering" from Your Collection

    Join Katie Dehmer, Catalog Librarian for the Southern Maryland Regional Library, to discuss how a regional library system recently updated their internal processing and cataloging practices to remove othering that occurs in the Dewey Decimal Classification System from their collection. She'll also talk about how the regional library plans to ensure a fair process is in place going forward.
