<div class="nine-pg MsoNormal" dir="auto">- <b>Implementing Sensitive Content Labeling Practices in Digital Collections.</b>
</div>
<div class="nine-pg MsoNormal" dir="auto">Alia Wegner, Digital Collections Librarian, Walter Havighurst Special Collections & University Archives, Miami University.
</div>
<div class="nine-pg MsoNormal" dir="auto">As a form of visual communication, digital collections can exclude, silence, and harm marginalized people through the description and content of digitized materials. While reparative description is an important tool
to ameliorate harmful effects in metadata, digital collections librarians must also explore ways to minimize harm in legacy collections that contain racist, culturally insensitive, and disturbing imagery. This presentation will discuss a pilot program at the
Miami University Digital Collections to substitute sensitive content label thumbnails in the browsing display for materials that contain graphically racist, violent, and culturally insensitive content. The pilot began in 2019, as part of a reparative description
project to incorporate anti-racist description in the Shields Trade Card Collection, but was expanded to other digital collections after an inventory of harmful content revealed a range of disturbing and graphic images. The sensitive content labels adopt an
“opt-in” approach for students and researchers to view harmful content that appears in their search results. Participants will learn how to implement sensitive content labeling practices at their institution and how to create selection criteria to identify
harmful imagery in their legacy collections.</div>
