    Abstract
    This paper uses "cool" as a metaphor to examine the role that affect and social context play in the design and use of knowledge organization (KO) systems. I provide a theoretical basis for beginning this inquiry, then consider the headway made by KO scholars in expanding the paradigm of KO study in order to engage user experience. I then consider how KO may produce affect, and how this aspect may be engaged for further design and study. In conclusion, I look at the value "cool" may have as a commodity in the larger political economy of information.

    The independent traditions of description in bibliographic and archival environments are rich and continually evolving. Recognizing this, how can Libraries, Archives and Museums seek convergence in describing materials on the web? In order to seek better description for materials and cross-institutional alignment, we can first reconceptualize where description may fit into work practices. I examine subject cataloging and archival practice alongside social tagging as a means of drawing conclusions for possible new paths in integration.
