This recorded presentation describes a project to train librarians to create subject headings for Indigenous nations. It also reports on the creation of a set of best practices based on feedback from participants in the project.
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
This presentation focuses on an Oregon State University Libraries and Press (OSULP) project to propose subject headings for tribes with traditional territories in Oregon. Participants will learn strategies to approach cataloging Indigenous groups and the nuances in this work.
Catalogers can create subject headings on topics related to the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals. This presentation, given at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, focuses on two examples: preparing subject heading proposals for indigenous peoples of Oregon and for crops which are nutrient dense and economically sustainable.
