Abstract

Visitors of online digital museums or galleries usually encounter a problem --- how to find out an artwork if neither the name nor author of the artwork is known. Social tagging can collect tags representing public users' feelings and opinions about an artwork, and these tags can help other users to find out artworks in which they are interested. This research applies social tagging, to Yuyu Yang Digital Art Museum (http://yuyuyang.e-lib.nctu.edu.tw). The advantages include the association of the artworks and visitors' feelings and opinions, the provisiion of indexes for users to browse and search, and the enrichment of the descriptions of artworks via public users' tags.
