Summary: | Taxonomies are becoming an increasingly important tool for organizations to effectively manage their information. This is especially so for organizations, where information is essential for their daily work. This project focused on building and implementing nursing taxonomies to organize knowledge resources and to facilitate resource discovery through browsing. The implementation of the nursing taxonomy consisted of three phases, preparatory, development and deployment. In the preparatory phase, the emphasis was on defining the objectives and collecting all resources such as term sources and tools needed for the next two phases. |
