Content Use Strategies

In a unified content strategy, you break information down to the element level (e.g., section, paragraph, sentence). Instead of writing documents, you write elements that are stored in a single source (often a database). Elements are then compiled into information products from that repository. the power of content reuse lies in effectively reusing information elements--whether they're paragraphs, procedures, or sentences--over and over again. Information models identify all the required elements and illustrate how to structure and reuse them. Managing Enterprise Content: A Unified Content Strategy, revised Feb. 3, 2003, The Rockley Group
