We don't have the capacity for this at the moment. Do you need a certain
number of users contributing content to make it valid?

Subject: [CIG-E-FORUM] Social media & catalogues
Huge thanks to you Wendy for starting us off! I shall officially put on
the moderator hat... now!
I thought that a good topic to move on to at this point would be to
discuss if/how social media is being used in your catalogues to engage
users with your materials and/or to encourage contributings of ratings,
comments, or even tags and metadata?
I was particularly considering the type of additions University of
Huddersfield have experimented with, some of which can be seen in their
catalogue (http://webcat.hud.ac.uk/ipac20/ipac.jsp?profile=cls) and the
Victoria & Albert Museum's crowdsourcing project for thumbnail images to
display in their OPAC (http://collections.vam.ac.uk/crowdsourcing/).
