As background, the SCA just issued a Wikibase Exploration Survey Report <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/sca/documents/Wikibase-Exploration-Survey-Report.pdf__;!!IBzWLUs!RngSexak71595EHBV4tAERmH-DDLwCr_BIDpR5u2ewD92vwT2c40-mDTk268D6Hq4gTkIrA2TDnzmRCautvjyZXm$> recommending that the PCC further explore using Wikibase. The goal of this discussion is to get input from PCC participants about what use cases the PCC should focus on if it embarks on developing a Wikibase instance. All are welcome to attend and participate in the discussion! Please submit your comments, questions, and discussion prompts ahead of the discussion on the meeting notes document <https://docs.google.com/document/d/197gRuIP_FTFYhd2qNmF5f6OeRf9uQ2fX7ekLjm0cHUc/edit?usp=sharing> .
