While we will ensure that the guidelines are plausible, this It will also produce a Best Practices guide for library description moving forward (i.e. outside of remediation efforts). The guidelines will provide enough information so that the best practices moving forward can be implemented without an expansion of existing resources, but they will also outline and clarify what additional resources will inevitably be necessary for remediation efforts. This group is not responsible for finding/allocating resources or the overall implementation of these best practices across CUL.
Goals:
