Date & time: Wednesday 2nd March - 11:00 - 12:30 - Working Meeting Session 4
Meeting title: DFT IG Breakout Sessions expanding vocabulary coverage and services

Agreed upon terminology, the meaning of terms used in discussion, is an important aspect of all group work. The DFT IG task is to continue the discussion evoked by the RDA DFT WG to support continuing RDA efforts regarding basic data concepts & framework models along with their vocabularies. A key aspect of the work is to support broader model and vocabulary agreements for and across these RDA WGs and IGs along with their representative communities and stakeholders.
We invite all RDA groups to submit and discuss their core terminology and relate these to terms already stored in our Term Tool (TeD-T).
In addition we will discuss the process of vocabulary development and how to make vocabularies useful to the RDA and related communities. Governance plans will also be discussed.

Please provide additional links to informative material related to your group i.e. group page, Case statement, working documents etc

This meeting will help continue the synchronization of RDA conceptualization and enable better understanding within and between RDA groups. In addition improvements in the depth of definitions will be pursued to better synchronize conceptualization, enable better understanding within and between communities and stimulate tool building.

Agenda
The following is the working agenda for the DFT Breakout session at P7
An Overview of the DFT IG, Case Statement & the Breakout Session- 
Explaining additions to the DFT vocabulary & overview of the Ted-T tool to capture vocabularies and alliance with related efforts such as RDA Vocabulary Services IG.
