Integrating taxonomies
October 7/8, 2003 (Enfield, CT) January 12/13, 2004 (Washington, DC)
This 2-day workshop is designed to help you develop
a concrete strategy for integrating multiple taxonomies - both internal

disciplines and cultures as well as making taxonomies available to navigation
tools, incorporating them into business applications, and including
them in editorial work flow. Jean Graef will teach the Connecticut session;
Denise Bedford will teach the Washington session.
