Metadata governance and policy design is a daunting task, with large limitations and variant stakeholder input. Of course, as archivists and librarians, we desire our governance to be “ethical” | “reflective” | and “culturally responsive.” But to what degree and to what end can a metadata framework truly be “critical”? Especially if the labor involved is minimal, on a deadline, or most relatable, on a budget.

The Folk Metadata Working Group will host our second session exploring and working through how we define folkloric governance and successful policy design. To join the working group, reach out to nuaindex@proton.me or join or Linkedin group https://www.linkedin.com/groups/40987124/.
