Christian Buckley discusses the importance of metadata strategy for SharePoint implementations. He explains that without a clear taxonomy and metadata plan, content becomes difficult to find, share, and govern. Buckley recommends mapping high-level site collections and content types, understanding current and future metadata needs, and establishing a governance model to guide the process. With a strong metadata strategy in place, organizations can better leverage SharePoint services and improve collaboration.

Structured SEO Data: An overview and how to for Drupalcgmonroe
The search world is all about social graphing today. Just look at Google's quick results sidebar when you search for a local business. You see a picture of the business, rating/reviews, hours, menu and more. Structured SEO data can help you define and shape what is shown about your site on search results.
This talks is intended to help people understand how to apply Structured data to a website and then implement this with a minimum of technical skill.
This talk covers:
Why you should be using structured data
An overview of what structured data is
A dive into the Schema.org standard and how Search Engines expect this to be embedded into a site.
A short example of how this was used in the DukeHealth.org site
A how to on using the Metatag and Schema.org Metatag modules to add structured data to your site.
A very quick look at how to go beyond what these can do using code.
You have adopted Microsoft SharePoint in your organization and have end users requesting tools and applications in SharePoint. Is SharePoint really the solution? Now you need the ‘SharePoint Person’! That is the person who is the solution architect, information architect, infrastructure architect, administrator, developer and support analyst all rolled into one. What technical skills will that person or team need to have to be successful in building and supporting SharePoint Solutions. You will learn the types of SharePoint requests that can be received from end users based on a decade of experience in building SharePoint solutions, and link them to the skillets that are required by your SharePoint team. You will also understand the skills required to support and maintain an effective Microsoft SharePoint environment.

Metadata Management In A Social Media World, Spsbos, 2 2010Christian Buckley
Presentation given at the Feb 27, 2010 SharePoint Saturday event in Boston (Waltham, MA) by Christian Buckley, Senior Product Manager with echoTechnology. The premise of the presentation is that metadata and taxonomy drive the integration and business utility of social media.
Presentation to the Information & Knowledge Management Society in Singapore, March 2008, on approaches to integrating controlled and uncontrolled vocabularies.
Get a practical, hands-on review of the new managed metadata services for managing taxonomies, folksonomies, tags, metadata and content types in SharePoint 2010.
This session will discuss building an effective search and information architecture strategy for SharePoint.
One of the reasons many SharePoint implementations fail to meet user expectations is the lack of investment in its underlying information architecture. Some organizations see SharePoint as an out-of-the-box solution that they can simply plug in and throw content into, but it requires as much thought and effort around data structure, organizational principles, and search configuration as any portal or intranet.
This call will discuss building an effective search and information architecture strategy for SharePoint, including such topics as:
• Building a search & IA vision
• Requirements gathering & use cases
• Implementation strategy & approaches
• The future of SharePoint search

We’ll discuss basic topology and planning of SharePoint 2010, as well as implementation.
The Role of Taxonomy and Ontology in Semantic Layers - Heather Hedden.pdfEnterprise Knowledge
Heather Hedden, Senior Consultant at Enterprise Knowledge, presented “The Role of Taxonomy and Ontology in Semantic Layers” at a webinar hosted by Progress Semaphore on April 16, 2024.
Taxonomies at their core enable effective tagging and retrieval of content, and combined with ontologies they extend to the management and understanding of related data. There are even greater benefits of taxonomies and ontologies to enhance your enterprise information architecture when applying them to a semantic layer. A survey by DBP-Institute found that enterprises using a semantic layer see their business outcomes improve by four times, while reducing their data and analytics costs. Extending taxonomies to a semantic layer can be a game-changing solution, allowing you to connect information silos, alleviate knowledge gaps, and derive new insights.
Hedden, who specializes in taxonomy design and implementation, presented how the value of taxonomies shouldn’t reside in silos but be integrated with ontologies into a semantic layer.
Learn about:
- The essence and purpose of taxonomies and ontologies in information and knowledge management;
- Advantages of semantic layers leveraging organizational taxonomies; and
- Components and approaches to creating a semantic layer, including the integration of taxonomies and ontologies

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

60. Metadata is the lifeblood of SharePoint Taxonomy and metadata drive the tools and processes that make the world go round Metadata powers search, it powers social media, and it powers SharePoint The role of metadata
67. Authors don’t apply metadata= “shotgun” approach to search OR Authors apply metadata without common classification = better search, but worse authoring experience
70. As a result, poor portal adoption and low user satisfactionWhat Happens Without Strategy
71. The islands of information have been moved to SharePoint. And? You can’t find anything You can’t tell who owns what You can’t tell what’s new, what’s old, or what has changed It’s all disconnected Why SharePoint Needs Metadata Strategy
73. In Biology, taxonomyis the science dealing with the description, identification, naming, andclassificationof organisms. “however, the term is now applied in a wider, more general sense and now may refer to a classification of things, as well as to the principles underlying such a classification.” ~Wikipedia.org
75. CENTRALIZED DECENTRALIZED Site architecture is centrally controlled Metadata is always applied to content Site Columns and Content Types are created at site collection root Lists get “bundles” of columns PROS Improves consistency Reduces metadata duplication Easy to update Easy to support and train on Allows document-level DIP, Workflow, Information Policies, and document templates CONS Requires planning Requires upfront work Hard to manage across site collections and portals Site architecture is ad-hoc Metadata may not be applied to content Columns are created on lists Columns are combined in an ad-hoc basis on each list PROS Requires no planning Requires little upfront effort Works across site collections and portals CONS Decreases consistency Increases metadata duplication Hard to update Hard to support and train on Only allows list-level Workflow, Information Policies and document templates Difficult to reverse Managing Metadata
76. What is your broader strategy for tagging, metadata and taxonomy? Map out your high level taxonomy (web applications and site collections) and schemas (Content Types) Understand your current-state and future-state plans, and how they relate to your metadata

81. It’s basically a definition of an artifact that can be stored in a SharePoint site. For example: A project document, including File type Date created Author Last modified It is part of a workflow, including Who needs to approve Date of approval It includes information management policies that Cannot be edited once approved Content Type
82. Content types may be applied for each site collection …or for certain sites
83. Content types can be shared Create a content type hub, which is an blank site collection used to publish content types Publish the content types Consume them Content types become visible in subscriber’s content type galleries Syndication
84. Managing Terms Service Application Instance Term Group Term Set Term Create a term set and terms Use the managed metadata Pick the terms
85. Understand the term group properties Group name Description Contributors Group Managers Understand the term store properties Term store administrators Default and working languages Managing Your Term Groups and Stores
87. Term Set = Taxonomy Includes related terms Managed through governance policies Managed Metadata Column Can be in a list, a library, or a content type Associated with a term set Found through Managed Metadata term set Keywords set = Folksonomy User generated tags Anyone can add them Requires ongoing governance
