Abstract

In contrast to traditional taxonomy, folksonomy is generated not only by experts but also by creators and consumers of the content. Folksonomy is the practice and method of collaboratively creating and managing tags to annotate and categorize content. It is also known as collaborative tagging or social indexing. Folksonomy is also used to link to create social network that connect people to people who share same interest. Folksonomy users can generally discover the contents by which the tag sets of another user who tends to interpret contents in a way that makes sense to them. Firstly, this study consider the significance and some critical issues about folksonomy. Secondly, analyze special features of Korean academic site's folksonomy, which is managed by academic information site. Accordingly consider the directions of development about folksonomy system.

폭소노미는 전통적인 분류체계인 텍소노미에 대칭되는 용어로 사람들에 의한 분류법이란 의미로 해석된다. 인터넷 컨텐츠를 대상으로 개방적으로 조직된 레이블로, 소셜 태깅의 결과로 만들어진 협력형 색인이다. 폭소노미는 다양한 이용자가 다양한 관점에서 생성한 태그를 통해 우연한 접근의 기회를 제공하며, 동일한 관심사를 가진 타인과 소셜 네트워크 형성을 위한 연결 고리가 된다. 본 연구에서는 폭소노미의 의의를 짚어보고, 전통적인 텍소노미 시스템을 어떻게 보완할 수 있는지, 그리고 그 문제점과 한계는 무엇인지 고찰해 본다. 더불어 학술정보서비스에 부여되고 있는 폭소노미 태그를 분석하여 그 특징을 살펴보고 폭소노미 시스템의 운영 방향을 제시한다.
