Go to: /admin/content/node2. This is a more complex page to administer content.  It allows more functionality than the normal /admin/content/node page.  

From the filter options, select your filter options.

  • In this case, select content type > PUBLICATIONS.  
  • Filter further by selecting from among the tags or other options, such as 'PUBLICATIONS:JSCE' to narrow the list to publications in the JSCE.
  • You may further narrow by typing a key word into the title, such as "Catholic"
  • Select the checkbox next to the nodes you want to modify.  To select all visible, check the box at the top of the table. If you have more
  • From the 'Bulk Operations' drop-down, select what you want to do.  In this case, select 'Modify node taxonomy terms'
  • Click execute

Modify node taxonomy terms' options:

  • You have four options, pick carefully!  
  • If a node has more than one tag, you don't necessarily want to replace all of them.  The options explain what they do.
  • (note: a "vocabulary" is a unique set of 'tags' and one node can have tags from multiple vocabularies.  Generally, your site does not do this, but it can).
  • You will only see vocabularies which are applicable to the node type you have selected (subjects for publications, etc.)
  • From the vocabulary option, select your preferred tag or tags.  
  • Execute and confirm.
