Subject: [canberra_ia_community] Next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour 06 February
2007: Tagging in Government



Hi all,

The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is on Tuesday 06 February 2007.

Matthew Hodgson has agreed to present a case study of his tagging work
in Government.

It's a rare thing for a government organisation to embrace a world
free of taxonomy, particularly when they are well aware that, come
Senate Estimates time, analysis of the information in that world could
cause nose bleeds and hair loss. It's a good thing, then, that some of
us have navigated this territory before and know you don't need to
throw large machines designed at Cyberdyne Systems to make sense of
unstructued information.

Matthew tells the story of his experience at OATSIH - of a
recommendation to leverage existing folk taxonomies, use tagging, and
even topic maps, to enable this agency to describe and report on
health services activity in Aboriginal communities.

We follow a meet'n'greet/presentation/chat format, with the emphasis
on information exchange at practitioner level. This is a great
opportunity to talk with other IAs in Canberra, have a few drinks, and
chat about work.

Time: 17:00-18:30
Day/Date: Tuesday 06 February 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT

Please RSVP by COB Friday 02 February 2007 for catering purposes.

Parking: please keep in mind that Brindabella Park has different
parking arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra -
there is free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of 8
Brindabella Circuit. After that you have to move your car or pay for
parking (and this applies past the end of the meeting).

PS: there is a contact list for the Canberra IA Cocktail Hours: you
can join via http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/canberra_ia_community

Best regards, Andrew Boyd
