RESUMEN
This detailed book is a
“how-to” guide to building controlled vocabulary tools, cataloging and indexing
cultural materials with terms and names from controlled vocabularies, and using
vocabularies in search engines and databases to enhance discovery and retrieval
online.
Also covered are the
following: What are controlled vocabularies and why are they useful? Which
vocabularies exist for cataloging art and cultural objects? How should they be
integrated in a cataloging system? How should they be used for indexing and for
retrieval? How should an institution construct a local authority file? The
links in a controlled vocabulary ensure that relationships are defined and
maintained for both cataloging and retrieval, clarifying whether a rose window
and a Catherine wheel are the same thing, or how pot-metal glass is related to
the more general term stained glass. The book provides organizations and
individuals with a practical tool for creating and implementing vocabularies as
reference tools, sources of documentation, and powerful enhancements for online
searching.
