    Meeting oBjectives
    Ongoing global efforts coordinated by a team within the RDA secretariat are developing strategies to improve the dissemination, impact, and evaluation of RDA recommendations and outputs. 
    These efforts fall within three overarching aims:
    1) Enhanced discoverability and intelligibility of RDA recommendations, outputs, and adoption stories
    2) Adoption support through education material development
    3) Monitoring and Evaluation of adoption impact 
    Activities for improving the dissemination of adoption stories include development of video material surrounding each adoption project, standardized metadata and metrics for each adoption story, standardized packet write ups for each adoption story, and clear pathways for the community to communicate their adoption projects to the rest of RDA.
    The objective of this session will be to:
    — Inform the community of ongoing efforts surrounding the first and third aim to improve discoverability, intelligibility, and overall dissemination of RDA adoption stories and improve communication of successes and lessons learned. 
    — Engage the community in discussing what expectations and inputs might be reasonable activities and responsibilities for groups adopting outputs, as well as define next steps.

    Short description
    Much of this work has grown from activities within the RDA Secretariat throughout the previous year. Regional meetings with RDA leadership, co-chairs, and adopters have provided opportunities for community feedback and critique. Our aim currently is to engage the larger global community in these efforts.
