Abstract

This presentation examines the tagging practices evident on CiteULike, a research oriented social bookmarking site for journal articles. Articles selected for this study were health information and medicine related. Tagging practices were examined using standard informetric measures for analysis of bibliographic information and analysis of term use. Additionally, tags were compared to descriptors assigned to the same article. (This presentation was delivered at the North American Symposium for Knowledge Organization in Toronto, June 14-15, 2007.
