Slideshow Transcript

  1. Slide 1: “To confer, converse, and otherwise hobnob with my brother wizards”: SLIC, SLAINTE and Web 2.0 Celia Jenkins & Gillian Hanlon, SLIC
  2. Slide 2: Why Web 2.0? • Improving SLAINTE. Focusing on needs of community. - Different ways of delivering content - Encourages communication, participation & collaboration - Enhances our resources
  3. Slide 6: Tagging: Key features • User generated keywords • No controlled vocabulary • Non-hierarchical • Folksonomy • No limit to number of tags • Supporting fields
  4. Slide 7: The great tagging debate: part I • Enables “pseudo-faceted classification” (Speller, 2007) • Creates a bottom-up consensus view (Shirky, 2005) • Adaptable to changing vocabularies (Mathes, 2004) • Facilitates serendipitous browsing (Mathes, 2004) • Combination approach (Pattern, 2007) • Evidence of tag consensus being reached (Golder & Huberman, 2005)
  5. Slide 8: The great tagging debate: part II • Synonyms and homonyms (Mathes, 2004) • Ambiguity of uncontrolled vocabulary (Mathes, 2004) • Specificity and the level of expertise (Golder & Huberman, 2005) • Longevity of tags (Smith, 2005) • Spaces and multiple words (Mathes, 2004) • Personal versus social (Mathes, 2004)
  6. Slide 9: Tag chaos
  7. Slide 10: The source
  8. Slide 11: Tagging: flickr libraries group
  9. Slide 12: Tagging: Library of Congress approach • Flickr pilot commenced Jun 2007 – live Jan 2008 • Two LoC photo collections added • Dublin Core records included • Tags applied by users – except “Library of Congress” tag • LoC flickr record
  10. Slide 13: A delicate balance • Scalability - high cost of applying LoC approach • Cognitive issues - unlikely that users will tag to standards • Perception shift – not tagging versus cataloguing
  11. Slide 14: Scottish libraries tag guidelines
  12. Slide 15: The finished product: flickr
  13. Slide 16: The finished product: delicious
  14. Slide 17: Future developments • Continuous development of tagging guidelines • Building on existing content • Work in progress: pod/webcasting, Facebook, live chat and surveys • Overcoming legal barriers • Integration with SLAINTE
