First, you can find a new, more detailed description of the event here: <a href="https://yalelibrary.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/YMD/pages/336429183/Overview+of+2025+Metadata+Documentation+Edit-a-Thon" id="OWA085b352a-e3bb-2cad-6599-d9daee9e01b8" class="OWAAutoLink">

On that page you'll see a "Preparation" section, which includes suggested readings. We're not expecting everyone to read them, but we think you'd find them useful.</div>
