The Commons - folksonomy meets the Library of Congress
One of our most popular speakers last year, George Oates of Flickr, writes in detail today about a collaboration between the Library of Congress (the US National Library), and Flickr to enable anyone to tag the Library’s photographic collection.
For now it’s a pilot project of about 1500 photos, but hopefully this will be greatly extended in future.
You can read more at Flickr, and the Library of Congress blog.
