Hello Hilary and the LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group,

Thank you for the invitation to the next LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Call on Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024. I am excited to participate in the discussion and learn more about how libraries can contribute to and better integrate library metadata with Wikidata.

I am particularly interested in the breakout room discussions on the four examples of cultural heritage items to contribute to Wikidata. I look forward to brainstorming categories, properties for basic and enhanced description, and discussing challenges with other participants.

Thank you for organizing this event, and I look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday!

Best regards,
Aliyu Shaba.
