Question about using Hierarchical Tags
I currently use multiple tags for some books (e.g. Astronomy, Science)

I was wondering about using hierarchical tags (e.g. Science.Astronomy) and if that would offer advantages

It looks neater in the tag browser, but messier in the Book Details pane.

Make sense when you are basically just sub-setting a category.

Thanks to both, hadn't thought about the book details pane

I think I'll try a few and see how I like it

I actually have a composite column that splits and de-dupes the tags, which I then have appear in book details instead of tags. See this thread for ideas of how to do this.
