Critical Cataloging and the American Library Association Subject Analysis Committee

There are many, many ways to contribute to "critical cataloging" efforts, from applying inclusive principles to daily cataloging work to participation in national and international organizations. Tina Gross will discuss some of the opportunities presented by the American Library Association Subject Analysis Committee (SAC) and its various sub-groups and activities, and reflect on her own experiences of attempting to make cataloging tools and practices more inclusive and user-focused through participation in such work.
