This session covers best practices for the implementation and maintenance of metadata fields, and taxonomies in a DAM environment. Topics will include practical tips and tricks for the Who, What, Where, When, Why and How of metadata and taxonomy development and maintenance, focusing on:
- Foundations and framework for metadata and taxonomy development.
- Methodologies for getting started.
- Maintenance of DAM terminology for DAMs: new and updated.
- Governance best practices: Who, What, Where, When, and Why.
Interwoven throughout will be a case study on how the two DAM librarians at the J.R. Simplot Company took an existing taxonomy created by a vendor during early DAM implementation and updated it to better fit a complex agribusiness and food production operation.
