  • A Practical Guide for Making Content Systems Work
David Diamond places metadata at the center of content management, where it belongs. In a conversational and non-dogmatic style, he takes us through the essentials of creating metadata for content assets, explaining the options for organizing it into controlled lists, taxonomies, or adaptive metadata layers. IT policy, content localization, and asset management workflow are all placed in the context of the metadata needed to manage and control your content. Anyone who has set up a Digital Asset Management capability or implemented a DAM system knows how hard it can be to secure user acceptance, particularly because tagging assets is viewed (rightly) as extra work. Diamond’s advice throughout the book reflects his real-world experience making a blend of automated and manual metadata management work in practice. If you are starting a Digital Asset Management program or shopping for a DAM system, read this book first. Diamond’s ideas, examples, and questions will help you focus on what’s most important instead of being distracted by the details of technology. If you have an active DAM system and organization, his book will be a helpful refresher and test of where you can improve your practices. ... show more

  • Very helpful
I found this book to be very helpful and applicable for my role at my company. Easy to read, but still explains what is needed - metadata, taxonomy, controlled vocabularies, schemas and content management.

I always like to pick other people’s brains when it comes to metadata which is why I found David Diamond’s book Metadata for Content Management extremely helpful. I learned quite a bit from his examples of policy considerations, workflows and localization issues. The book is not overwhelming and it is a quick read; I highly recommend picking it up for your personal reference library. ... show more
