Keywords

Keywords are added to object records to describe subject matter or genre and style. They assist staff and visitors in finding related content and themes in collection artworks.

The Blanton’s Keyword Thesaurus is an in-house vocabulary list, and is managed by the Database Manager. For clarifications or new additions, please contact the Database Manager.

Keywords are grouped in the “Attributes” widget, where AAT terms or BMA keywords can be assigned. Note, AAT is not currently in use as part of BMA cataloguing practice
