Tagging

When I read about tagging, my first thoughts were "how chaotic" and "how can there not be standards." Then after thinking about it for awhile, I realized that I have to guess many times on the LC subject headings when looking for subject area books for a patron. It was interesting to read that this system does seem to work so people are able to find what they are looking for in most cases. It is just one more new idea for "traditional librarians" like me to embrace.
