Collection

In a Collection, content is organized with a taxonomy that reflects the needs of information users.

Content is referenced in Collections in the form of links to Master Catalogs or Logs where the actual content is stored and organized according to the needs of the person, the Information Manager, who manages the content.

A Collection can reference content in any practicable number of Master Catalogs and Logs.

Any practicable number of Collections can draw on any practicable number of Master Catalogs and Logs.

Event Calendar

An Event Calendars looks like a wall calendar. It's intended for publication to a website or Intranet. Designed for space-saving, it presents events that occur once, periodically, or over a span of time.

Import

An import is a Master Catalog, Log or Collection created by one Information Manager using Taxonomer and sent to one or more other Taxonomer-using Information Managers somewhere else. They use Taxonomer's import function to load the incoming Master Catalog, Log or Collection.

Taxonomer places all the incoming knowledge bases in the Import list where they can be worked on, or reclassified.

Log

A Log resembles a Master Catalog except that the content is organized by date.

Master Catalog

In a Master Catalog the content is organized to meet the needs of the Information Manager.

Multi-Axial Classification
