So this week in Adventures in Technology we are talking about tagging, which is basically a way to draw people's (or yourself's) attention to an item in a blog, on a web page, etc. I was using tagging and didn't even know it!
As for use with a library catalog, I think it is a great idea! I really liked the look of the catalog page from the Ann Arbor library...anything we can do to get the patrons to interact with the system is awesome. I can see how it would make them feel like they are contributing to the library community.
Granted, I can see how this chides against the Librarian's sense of order, but if it is used to supplement the existing catalog structure, I think it will be very useful.
