Capture – Content Structure
Capture – Term Sets
• Capture common elements• Reuse terms across sites to
enforce consistent terminology
• Allows for creation of customized views/filters
• Aids in Search
• Ability to update all uses of a term from a centralized location
Metadata - Considerations
• What terms will users use to search for that content?
• What terms will help users determine the relevancy of the document?
• What terms will the system use for processing?
• What additional information is required for compliance/regulatory?
Capture Method – Buckets of Information
• Identify the top level libraries/lists
Capture Method – What’s in the bucket?
• What types of items are in the bucket of information?
Capture Method – What describes those items?
