| Your Virtual Seminar Leader. Jay Ven Eman has been with Access Innovations since late 1978. He has overseen Access' database production services where he was responsible for the design and conversion of large, legacy databases for a variety of government and commercial organizations. He writes, gives workshops, consults, and helps build large-scale, complex, information rich databases. Currently, he is helping launch a new, major scientific, technical, and medical (STM) taxonomy and knowledge domain that's being developed by Access. He received his Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior from the University of Colorado in Boulder. Description A thesaurus is an outline of knowledge and used heavily in content and knowledge management. A taxonomy is the hierarchical view of a thesaurus. Built and deployed correctly, a taxonomy is a great guide to a Web site, especially the underlying databases. It improves searching by providing precise, relevant results to a search query. Guarantee The user will learn the differences and definitions of the thesaurus terms (concepts, methods, and processes) and then authority files (people, places, and things). We will cover why you should build one; where you can use it; and how it works together.
