About this nonfiction

Taxonomies: Practical Approaches to Developing and Managing Vocabularies for Digital Information: Practical Approaches to Developing and Managing Vocabularies for Digital Information by Helen Lippell is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.

Taxonomies have become more widely-understood and used in the last decade as organisations seek to manage and exploit their information. The rise in understanding of the potential of semantic models has also led to an increase in demand for controlled vocabularies and ontology models. While education in classification and categorisation is becoming more and more mature, it does not necessarily prepare taxonomists for the everyday realities of working with stakeholders, sponsors and systems so that their taxonomies remain useful and relevant. Taxonomies: Practical Approaches to Developing and Managing Vocabularies for Digital Information is a curated anthology of expert-contributed chapters and case studies that cover the wide range of ways in which taxonomies are used in digital applications including the web, enterprise systems and libraries. The book brings together experts from a range of disciplines to provide realworld insights on how to build and implement a taxonomy in an organisation. The book will cover everything a working taxonomist - whether they’re an inhouse resource or a consultant - needs to consider, including business buy-in; working on a project team; choosing so
