The Art Museum Community Cataloging Project is a prototype of a possible folksonomic tool which is under development. David Bearman and Jennifer Trant in Social Terminology Enhancement through Vernacular Engagement discuss the advantages of enabling the public to ‘tag’ museum collections. Recognising that the way archivists describe collections seldom meets the on-line needs of the broad public they suggest that a solution could be ‘tagging’. Bearman and Trant suggest that the public could engage with museum content using social software applications similar to del.icio.us and technorati, in the process also producing communities of practice around a museum collection.
