Thing 11: Tagging


I tagged Millions by Frank Cottrell Boyce, one of my new favorite books; the movie is also great. I noticed the catalog record seemed to heavily emphasize the "death and mourning" threads in the book. While they are definitely there, the book has alot of sweet humor, so I thought I'd add that tag.

I like tagging--it's a nice way to add some descriptors that are all little more down to earth. One of the biggest jokes is my cataloging class was the fact that the Library of Congress still uses "cookery" rather than "cooking" to describe cookbooks.

Check it out: 650 0 Cookery (Seafood), from the catalog record for Cooking with the Seafood Steward.
