As a result of recent work at the California Community College Library Consortium, Ex Libris now has a policy regarding subject headings in CDI records, and started a stoplist (current stoplist is linked in the policy) of offensive and racist terminology to exclude from display in the subject headings.
As Ex Libris customers, you/your staff can report subject headings in CDI records that you/your staff consider offensive to Anti-Bias@exlibrisgroup.com.
If you'd like to know more about how this came about, the California group will offer a recorded webinar in late April. I'll update here once it becomes available.
