A presença da folksonomia híbrida no Archive of Our Own

Abstract

The present final paper of the Librarianship course investigates the site Archive of Our Own concerning concepts and foundations of the Information and Knowledge Organization, focusing on the thematic representation of information, especially folksonomy. Within the so-called fandoms, some people create literary content based on the already existing stories, the so-called fanfictions. For people to post and read these works some sites focus on posting these fanfics. Specifically, it will talk about what fans, fandoms, and fanfictions are, it will be discovered what it is, how it was created and a vision of the Archive of Our Own site, and finally the definitions of the Information and Knowledge Organization and the definitions of Taxonomy, Folksonomy, and Hybrid Folksonomy. The research data was collected through descriptive research and qualitative research. The results show that the Archive of Our Own is structured significantly from elements derived from hybrid folksonomy, information organization, and knowledge. It was concluded that the hybrid folksonomy has its advantages and disadvantages, but it is the best form of organization and information retrieval for the AO3.
