Faceted Browsing of Finding AidsUsers could find
items on more than one dimension
Discover collections without using a specific keyword
Allow for browsing collections in a format that was more than a list
![Page 11: Marac subject guides pflug](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062503/542923c08d7f72714e8b6a29/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Subject HeadingsIdea to use
existing subject headings to create word cloud
Problem: too many terms
Solution: “Tags” to define and/or limit vocabulary to apply uniformly

Our ProcessStep 1: EAD gets fed through the
XSLT Style Sheet. Output = Tab delimited text file
Step 2: Tab delimited text gets converted to comma separated text (CSV)
Step 3: Python script converts CSV to JSON file
Step 4: HTML file interacts with JSON
