Practical Ontologies for Information Professionals
provides an accessible introduction and exploration of ontologies and demonstrates their value to information professionals.More data and information is being created than ever before. Ontologies, formal representations of knowledge with rich semantic relationships, have become increasingly important in the context of today's information overload and data deluge.

Information professionals are key contributors to the development of new, and increasingly useful, ontologies.
