Idea Contest Seeks Taggers

LibrErica writes: “Last fall, people from all 50 states contributed more than 22,000 smart, creative ideas for strengthening the economy and improving life for working men and women and their families during the SEIU’s idea contest for the best idea since sliced bread. Three winners were selected, but the contest administrators don’t want all those other ideas to go to waste.

Sinceslicedbread.com is seeking volunteer taggers so that the ideas can be easily accessed by subject, allowing policy makers, government officials and citizens to find ideas about education or the environment, for instance. Classifying information into subject headings is something that librarians are uniquely qualified to do.

Librarians to the rescue! If you have a spare moment, won’t you visit and tag an idea or two ?”
