Abstract
Discussions about taggers tend to focus on the software involved. However, this software should always be considered in relation to the task it is used for and the people it is used by. This chapter examines the role of the user in the tagging process, both in the preparatory phase, during selection of a tagger to use (7.2), and in the operational phase, during the actual use of the tagger (7.3). The user obviously has a further important role to play in the exploitation of the tagged material, but this role is so dependent on the exact use of the material (cf. Chapter 3) that we will not attempt to describe it here.
