Abstract
A qualitative, multi-institutional study investigating how academic libraries in the United States integrate inclusive and reparative description principles and practices into their digital collections. This paper draws on a series of interviews with metadata professionals from eight R1 institutions to assess how they approach the remediation of legacy metadata in their digital collections. The findings demonstrate that, while inclusive metadata is widely recognized as important, its implementation remains underutilized and unevenly applied.
