Tagging...

I like tagging for certain things. For example, I was putting some art up on a website and it allowed me to enter tags for people to search for the art. And I think that was a totally appropriate place for tagging. However, I don't think that patron-tagging belongs in a library. I think that the structure and standardization that we get with subject headings is one of the great contributions of libraries.
