Abstract

Tagging is the practice of assigning common terms to digital objects such as websites, photos, or articles. These tags serve as metadata for easy organization and retrieval. Many libraries have begun incorporating tags into their catalogs in various ways. This presentation considered the practices of a few select libraries as examples of how tagging can be used in conjunction with more traditional cataloging practices to add value to the library catalog.
