Taxonomy Talk

Taxonomy Talk is a Discord community that is open to anyone working within information architecture and knowledge organization spaces, no matter their level of experience or knowledge.

A community of theory and practice supported and maintained by volunteers of the World IA Association. This includes people who work on, manage, or are responsible for taxonomies even as just part of their job. ​

Most importantly, the community is open to all and encourages aspiring practitioners to join to network with, communicate with, and learn from current practitioners. Join us today!
