Learn how to build a connected cataloging infrastructure


This presentation was originally delivered at the
CAWA Leadership & Educational Forum, where industry leaders gathered to discuss what’s actually holding back growth.

Now available for free, this deck reframes cataloging as shared infrastructure, outlining how connected data, systems, and AI enable teams to move faster and scale with confidence.

What you’ll learn

  • Why demand isn’t the constraint, coordination is

  • The three stages of cataloging maturity and where organizations get stuck

  • How small data gaps turn into returns, exceptions, and stalled growth

  • Why connected catalogs and AI matter more as scale increases
