Assigning Keywords to Your Photos
A common way to categorize items in a large collection, such as a picture
library, is to assign keywords to them. Keywords are simple tags consisting
of a word or two, such as vacation or night shot. You can assign several key-
words to the same picture, allowing the picture to belong to several catego-
ries simultaneously.
Try this technique on pictures in the Soccer Event:
1 Open the Soccer Event, and then choose View > Keywords or press
Command-Shift-K.
