<font face="Calibri">Hi, Neil,<br>
<br>
I would be interested in the wikidata training. I no longer
catalog Hebrew materials but I do quite a bit of special
collections cataloging and I'm interested in learning more about
identity management.<br>
Thanks.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Dear all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Following our conversation at the AJL conference, I wanted
to touch base regarding an initiative.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As you know UMD has just started several projects for
Special Collections that use Wikidata as the authority
management platform. In the last few months we have been
training a small group of our catalogers, briefly reviewed
their progress, and involved them in the projects. The
projects are also part of the PCC WIkidata pilot program.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>At this point there are a few more UMD people that have
manifested interest in going through the same training, which
is essentially a 90 minutes session taught by Sarah Hovde and
myself. We are pondering expanding this to other institutions.
I wanted to check with the Hebraica cataloger community and
see if enough people would be interested either in joining our
small UMD cohort or organizing a separate, Judaica specific
group. Please share your thoughts on this. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A quick additional note regarding the RAS cataloging
committee: we are closing down on membership. At this point we
are still missing one member and we hope to ultimate details
in a few weeks. Once everything is settled, we are considering
having a Winter zoom meeting in addition to the annual. We'll
keep you posted.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Looking forward to the New Year, which we hope to be much
better!</div>
