Open culture, decolonlal practice, and community-led Al governance are not optional extras. They are the conditions for a just digital future.
- João Alexandre Peschanski . Wikimedla Brasil #AlBridgesSymposium

"Without reliable #metadata, strategic decisions are based on flawed data, weakening the library’s ability
to demonstrate value and advocate for resources."
"Libraries that neglect #metadata resilience face mounting user frustration from broken links, incomplete records, and inconsistent access. Discovery becomes fragmented, eroding trust in library systems and diminishing the library’s visibility in the broader research ecosystem."
"In a time of tightening budgets and rising expectations, #metadata resilience isn’t just operational, it’s essential to
sustaining relevance, trust, and impact."
