The Value of Taxonomies

October 14, 2014 / Melody Smith / Comments Off on The Value of Taxonomies

EBSCO Information Service and Infotrieve have joined efforts to combine their search, content access, rights management and document delivery in a single platform. This new information came to us from KMWorld in their article, “EBSCO and Infotrieve Partner.”

Customers will be able to use Infotrieve’s Mobile Library as their e-content access and management platform while using the search and extensive metadata from EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS).

It is important to remember the value of a solid taxonomy and its role in the search process. How the content is classified impacts the findability of your data. Professionals should look for an experienced builder of solid standards-based taxonomies to associate content for appropriate machine-assisted indexing.
