Finding Identities: Metadata Analysis on LGBTQ+ Knowledge Representation in the University of the Philippines Diliman Academic Libraries Bagunu, Jessie Rose M. Salcedo, Miriam Charmigrace Q. Amandy, Michael D. Tinao, Maria Maura S. This study investigates the gap between the rich conceptual depth of LGBTQ+ knowledge representation and the limited metadata used to describe identities within the Philippine academic landscape. A mixed-methods approach was employed and focused on a corpus of over 1,400 bibliographic records across five library units at the University of the Philippines Diliman. The study concludes that the future of library metadata must evolve from static, rigid filing systems into dynamic and socially responsive maps of human identity. There is an urgent need to move beyond exact-match keyword searches and similarity-based discovery be embrace which allows users to explore the conceptual relationships between diverse works.
