Installing keywords in Lightroom

IMPORTANT: I recommend that you back-up your Lightroom database before importing these keywords, especially if you already have species keywords.

1. After downloading, unzip the text file into a folder on your computer. For example, My Documents.

2. Open Lightroom, Library module and select Metadata->import keywords

3. Navigate to where you saved the keyword file and press “Open”.

ImportKeywordDialog

4. After the import has finished you should have a top-level keyword (e.g. “The British List by family”) – expand that to see all the species organised by family.

5. You just add the species name to your species and Lightroom will add the rest when you export.

OK, enough of all these warnings and instructions…where is the download link?

Head here to download my Lightroom keyword libraries.

Any issues or questions, let me know in the comments.
