Creation & curation for beginners
Being able to find things is simpler if we are organized. The tidier we are, the easier it is to locate things. This same principle—being organized—also applies to ensuring that digital data and information are properly stored and retrievable.
“I have no problem with standards like a subject heading system or a
classification system. You have to have some base that you are working
on, but deviations it seems to me are not only possible, but … absolutely
essential if you are going to liberate a lot of your materials from the
narrow access that they are confined to now, by virtue of too rigidly
applying the present standards.”
(Berman & Gross, 2017)
