Update 'Feeling curious?' tags in Works Landing #2976

Closed Heesoomoon closed 4 years ago

Heesoomoon commented 6 years ago

As Hayley noted in our May Analytics report, our users are using the tags (e.g. Paintings, Health, Botany, Science) on Works landing to discover the collections. We haven’t updated since we launched it last year and could use some refresh. It would be great if the results represent diverse topics or formats (books and images).

Suggestions Bodies Anatomy, DNA,

Mind and therapy Mental health, Healthcare, Asylum

Medicines and Intoxicants Medicine , Smoking, Medical recipes, Alchemy, Opium, Arsenic/Poison, Pharmaceuticals

Disease, Illness and Conditions AIDS, Sleep disorder (insomnia), Birth defects

Nature and Environment Botany, Almanac, Herbals

Culture and Society Sanskrit, Quacks, Devil

Humanity

Material types Paintings, Ephemera, Health posters, Etchings, Portraits, Manuscripts

New idea from Beta Release discussions: Featured set of items to reflect our collection, that helps users to see what they can find in our collections. (New release will have Digital images, Pictures, and Books).

@jennpb I've updated the list based on the suggested topics from Collection Info team and Alice.
