Think you know The University of Alabama? Well, come on and tag it! The University Libraries has started a new crowdsourcing project, allowing anyone to view and tag photographs from the W.S. Hoole Special Collections Library!
Why tag our photographs?
We have thousands of digitized photographs! Many of these photos may lack adequate or complete descriptions of the people, places, or objects displayed. By applying your own “tags” (key words, descriptions) to our photographs, you can help us fill in the blanks and provide more thorough and accurate information for students and researchers using our collections.
The more you tag, the richer the experience for all! And besides, it’s not only easy, but it’s FUN!
Visit http://tagit.lib.ua.edu/ and get started! It’s easy, no password is needed, so just get in there, pick some photographs, and start tagging away! If you have questions, feel free to contact us!
