Building cultural sensitivity into Primo

Except for sessions marked as "Physical session only (no live streaming)", all sessions are accessible to physical and virtual participants.

The University of Queensland Library has a dedicated focus on our journey building and embedding relationships and participation for First Nations peoples. We seek out opportunities to leverage our Primo discovery layer in these efforts, including with a recent Cultural Sensitivity Statements project. This work included adding a Cultural advice indicator, banner, and facet on evaluated records, and display of an Advisory statement specific to the content. Identification of records extends across UQ systems of Alma, our Archival Management System AtoM, and our UQ eSpace Institutional Repository. Additional project elements include embedding cultural sensitivity messaging and engagement tools across our Library’s web presence, establishing targeted contact points for queries and input, and considering how we might measure the value added. This session will share details of this project, from record metadata in source systems through to discovery and engagement in our online environment.
