Amber Billey, Metadata Librarian at Columbia University Libraries, will lead a discussion on Wednesday, 3/15 at 2:00 PM (Eastern) on the example of RDA rule 9.7. A rule that, if recorded, required gender to be fixed in RDA-compliant name authority records until a group of catalogers fought to make it optional. Amber is Chair of the ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services Interest Group. She is the Co-Chair of the PCC BIBFRAME Task Group, and serves on the PCC NACO Task Group on Identity Management. She is also on the Advisory Board for the Digital Transgender Archive and the editorial board for the Homosaurus - a linked data thesaurus for the LGBTQ community. For more information and to learn how to register, please click here.
