TAXONOMIES AND INDEXING

Here at SLA we want to fuel your minds with relevant and timely information. We know your day-to-day schedule prevents interaction, discussions, and brainstorming with colleagues.

So, to make it easier for you to receive the tools you need to become efficient in your profession, SLA is presenting a Virtual Seminar on "Taxonomies for Indexing". It will be held on January 24, 2003 from 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. ET.

The speaker for this event will be Jay Ven Eman. He will take a taxonomic approach to indexing databases. Taxonomies, classifications, and thesauri are defined. Distinctions are made between filtering, indexing, meta data, and subject term assignment. Taxonomies can be expensive to build, to maintain, and to use. Tools are available to ease the pain. The basics of such tools are presented including the desired features and the benefits of use. Costs of building, of maintaining, and of deploying them are presented.
