    For anyone particularly interested in the first portion of the OCLC cataloging community meeting about "Best practices for queer metadata,"  I wrote a brief description of the presentation and the document Best Practices for Queer Metadata in the blog post Advancing IDEAs: Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, 21 January 2025, Advancing IDEAs is a recurring series  on issues of Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility, compiled by a team of OCLC contributors.
