You should probably join the ControlledVocabulary group on Yahoo. It deals with
exactly the
topic you are requesting information on. There are many good links to resources
there. You
might also check out the web site of the moderator of that group David Riecks.
Go to http://
www.controlledvocabulary.com

With those two resources, you'll keep busy reading for the next several years on
the topic. It's
an evolving field as software development tries to catch up with the needs of
the
photographic community and the ever-increasing volume of images being produced.
