The document discusses various methods for organizing content on a website or other digital platform. It describes categorizing content alphabetically, numerically, or by intended audience. The document also discusses card sorting as a way to get user input on content organization structures. Card sorting involves having users group summaries of content topics to determine intuitive organization schemes. The results may not be consistent between users but it can provide a starting point for content structure. Overall, the key message is that formal organization methods are important for large amounts of digital content to aid user accessibility and understanding.

2.  is the process of converting analog
signals or information of any form
into a digital format that can be
understood by computer systems or
electronic devices.
 The term is used when converting
information, like text, images or
voices and sounds, into binary code.

3.  Digitized information is easier to store,
access and transmit, and digitization is
used by a number of consumer electronic
devices.

4.  One of the most important qualities of
information in digital form is that by its
very nature, it is not fixed in the way that
texts are printed on paper.
 Digital texts are neither final nor finite,
and are fixed neither in the essence nor in
form except when a hard copy is printed
out, for they can be changed easily and
without trace of erasures or emendation.

5.  Flexibility is one of the chief assets of
digital information and precisely what
we like about text poured into a word
processing program.
 It is easy to edit, to reformat, and to
commit print in a variety of iterations
without the effort required to produce
hard copy from a typewriter.

6.  It is easy to summon up quickly any
number of variations of value, hue, and
placement to see, rather than to imagine,
what different visual options look like.
 Furthermore, we can create an endless
number of identical copies from a digital
file, because the file does not decay by
virtue of copying.

7.  Electronic resources are immensely
appealing to nearly everyone concerned
with education and scholarship. The
potential benefits of information in
digital form, unfettered access, flexibility,
enhanced capabilities for analysis and
manipulation are profound.
 Record management

9.  The organization of enterprise content is more
than just the placement of files and folders, or
of text on the page. Meticulously organized
content is accounted for under the company’s
knowledge management system—which aims
to ensure successful content governance,
content lifecycles, and learning and change
management.

10.  High quality content, regardless of
whether the site aims to inform,
entertain, or sell a product, will increase
the site’s likelihood of converting
visitors. But beyond providing high
quality content, a site also needs to
organize that content in a way that
makes it accessible to visitors.

11.  The professionals, in our case librarians,
work relatively independently of their
colleagues, but usually maintain a close
relationship with the customers they serve.
This type of organization, according to Lars
Groth in his book on future organizational
design, provides a limited platform for
successful adaptation to advanced
information technology due to the core work
being professional judgment.

12.  Any discussion of content governance must
take into consideration all governance aspects
of a knowledge management program. By so
doing, the full scope of content governance can
be clarified and any potential gaps can be
identified.

13.  Within a shared knowledge management
environment, there must be agreed-upon
standards and guidelines for various
business processes. Best practices
indicate agreement on common core
process steps for receiving, processing,
maintaining, and archiving knowledge
assets (content).

14.  A critical aspect of developing a consistent
and high-quality user experience is ensuring
the consistency and quality of the content.
The enterprise must agree on the
authoritative sources for various types of
content, develop clear content ownership
guidelines, adopt and comply with a content
lifecycle, and ensure the provision of basic
knowledge asset management capabilities

15.  So, you have a list of the necessary content for
your website, and you know what your visitors
are going to want to know first. But let’s say
you have a lot of information to convey and
you aren’t sure how, exactly, you should do
that. It’s not uncommon to have lots of
information or links that need to be presented
that have equal importance on a page. In those
cases, it’s best to decide on some formal
method for organizing it, rather than just
ordering it randomly.

16.  There are a number of schemes you can use to
organize lists of information. Alphabetical or
numerically are two of the most common, but they
only really work for certain types of content. Lists
of links, for example, can work really well
arranged alphabetically.
 Organizing information by who its intended
audience is works well for sites where there are
likely to be multiple different types of visitors. For
example, an online banking website might have
business customers and personal customers.
Arranging information separately for each type of
visitor makes sense, as there will be different
priorities for each.

17.  If you’re unsure of how to organize the
information on your site, or you can figure out
multiple ways that seem like they’d work, you
might consider using card sorting to figure out the
most intuitive way of organizing that information
 With card sorting, you put summaries of your site
content onto index cards and then let users sort
that content into what they think are the most
logical groups. You’ll need a focus group in order
to carry this out, and turning to your current
customers or users can be a good option.

18.  All your users need to do is arrange the cards in
the way they think best represents how they
should be grouped. You can choose to put them in
groups at the start, and then let users rearrange
them, or you can just put them all in one group.
The former method may work best if you already
have a content structure in place and are
wondering what improvements could be made,
while the second one may be best for new designs.
 Card sorting is simple and cost-effective, which
makes it a good option for developing a content
structure without spending a lot of money. One
big disadvantage, though, is that results may not
be very consistent between users. You might have
ten users and get back ten completely different
methods for organizing your site’s content. But it’s
often a good starting point, if nothing else.

19.  William Carlos Williams once said that a poem is a
"machine made of words. " A sad poem is a
machine that manufactures melancholy; a funny
poem is a machine that produces laughs. Poetry
doesn't have a monopoly on this quality--a well-
crafted speech can also be a machine made of
words. Skillfully constructed language has a
powerful effect on its audience, and speechwriters
should strive to harness that power. How should a
public speaker go about building a "machine made
of words"? It's all in the organization. Machines
only work when their component parts are
assembled properly.

21.  When you are organizing your main points,
ask yourself a few questions. What is your
ultimate goal? Are you trying to inform the
audience, persuade the audience, amuse the
audience, or enrage the audience? Think about
the experience you want to create for your
listeners--how you want them to feel when you
begin speaking, and how you want them to feel
when you make your final statement. When
you have a clear vision in mind, return to the
"Ordering Main Points" segment and choose
a model that fits your purpose.
