The library profession has undergone a sea change in controlled vocabulary in the past five years—cataloging librarians are working together to improve Library of Congress Subject Headings and rethink our approach to subject access. Join Violet Fox, the co-coordinator of the SACO Medical Funnel, to hear about what’s changed and how you can get involved in ensuring better access to library resources about disability, medicine, and health.
