Question/answer » How can I organize the photos / scans in the family archive?
One of the quality characteristics of an archive is that it is organized! The Archivaris family offers you the possibility to organize the photos / scans by keywords. As a family archivist or participant, you can assign keywords to a photo / scan that describe the piece well. For example, you can include the origin as a keyword for a photo ("photo album oma koeman"), the location ("market"), the period ("wo2"), the people ("annie de groot", "jaap langhuis"), type ("school photo", "diploma"), etc.
After assigning the catchwords you can view all photos / scans with a certain catchword, or catchwords (max. 2).
Via the Key word overview you get an overview of all key words with the size indicating how often they have been assigned (this is also known as a tag cloud ).
