  • 1.  GODORT Friday Chat-February 6, 1pm ET/12pm CT/11am MT/10am PT

    Posted 3 days ago

    It's time for another GODORT Friday Chat this Friday, February 6, at 1pm ET/12pm CT/11am MT/10am PT.

    This month's topic is Inventory as Process: Working Inside a Legacy State Documents Collection. Join Wafaa Razeq, Connecticut State Documents librarian as she discusses inventory practices. This talk looks at inventory as an ongoing, real-world process rather than a one-time cleanup project. Using the Connecticut State Documents Collection it walks through the challenges of working with legacy practices, mixed formats, and incomplete documentation, and shares what inventory work actually revealed about access, workflows, and long-term stewardship.
