“Taxonomies in Search” Webinar

August 5, 2011 / Melody Smith /

Continuing with the SLA Taxonomy Division’s webinar series, the Taxonomies in Search webinar will be held Wednesday, August 10th at 1:00 p.m. EST (10:00 a.m. PST).

This second in a 6-part series will explore why the recall, precision, and relevance factors that figure so heavily in search are often missing from taxonomies, as well as how search can potentially be improved by applying subject metadata. Participants will also learn how taxonomies can be used on the front end or attached to records at the time they are created and loaded.

To register for the webinar on August 10, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern / 10:00 a.m. Pacific, click here.

The sessions are free webinars as a benefit of membership in the Special Libraries Association’s Taxonomy Division. To join SLA, click here.

    Out of the endless string of sessions from so many sources, leading to webinar fatigue, this looks like it will offer some really valuable information!
