Dear colleagues:

 

In 2013, JSTOR launched a new thesaurus tailored to the content in the digital library. Since that time, the thesaurus terms have been integrated in several ways to aid in discovery on the platform. We invite you to join Sharon Garewal, Senior Metadata Librarian, for a 30-minute free webinar on JSTOR’s subject thesaurus and how we’re using it to improve the platform experience for researchers. Sharon will cover the development and maintenance of the thesaurus, and will explain how we are continuing to refine and expand the taxonomy.

 

We hope you can attend!
