Glossary

What is the IA Glossary?

IAI is working to establish a standard glossary of information architecture terms. The glossary is intended to foster a shared vocabulary within the discipline and should work in concert with the development of the IA Taxonomy.

Benefits

A common language among practitioners
Clarification of terminology to avoid confusion
A learning resource for new IAs or co-workers that are not IAs
