WHO AM I AND WHY AM I HERE?
TRACY WOLFEDIGITAL ASSET MANAGER /LIBRARIANCORBIS IMAGES : BILL & MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION PROJECT
I have an MLIS from San Jose State University with a focus on the Organization of Information and Emerging Technologies. I have worked on digital asset management for the advertising industry, interned in search at Getty Images, assisted on a digital archiving project at The Seattle Public Library, currently volunteer at the Ballard Historical Society and I am the DAM Administrator/Librarian for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Communications digital library project at Corbis Images.
Corbis creates all the photo and video content for the Gates Foundation and I catalog it and manage the system.
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER IN REAL LIFE
• Local controlled vocabularies
• Combining authorities or thesauri
• How to create order out of customized chaos
• User input (institutional knowledge, search logs)
• Hierarchical or flat?
THE SEATTLE PUBLIC LIBRARY CENTURY 21 DIGITAL COLLECTION
• Photos depicting art, architecture and aspects of the 1962 World’s Fair. Collection also included ephemera – posters, menus, souvenirs.

Local Controlled Vocabulary/Choosing an Authority
• Project Challenges
• Due to the nature of the content, some architects and artists participating in the 1962 World’s Fair exhibitions were not famous, rather local Seattle professionals unlikely to be listed by standard authorities like the ULAN, AAT or LCSH.

Example of Existing Vocabulary
THE SEATTLE PUBLIC LIBRARY CENTURY 21 DIGITAL COLLECTION
Customizing a Local Vocabulary
• Solution:
• As metadata was collected from each item, AAT, ULAN and LCSH were evaluated. New terms were added to custom local vocabularies in CONTENTdm to align with the custom content.
