# Tags
[Admins](/user-management/user-roles.md) can use this page to learn how to [create](#creating-tags) and [add](#applying-tags) tags to data.
## Create Tags
You can create new tags from the **All Tags** page by clicking **+ New Tag**, next to the page title.
Create custom tags with different colors and icons to distinguish them from each other at a glance.
## Organizing tags
Tags in Select Star are defined to be flexible so you can design your own process when cataloguing your data. This section explains tag ownership, and how to organize tags.
### Tags vs Collections
Select Star has tags and [collections](/data-management/collections.md).
Use collections group information relevant to a domain, data product, department or project. Collections can be applied to high-level datasets, like tables and dashboards, but not to columns.
Use tags to indicate data quality. You can mark any datasets or fields as **Certified**, **Sensitive**, **Deprecated**, or any other status you'd use to define the state of the data.
Tags can be applied to any data down to the column level.
### Folder Structure
Tags can be organized into a folder like structure by dragging one tag into another. This can help you structure your tags in multiple levels.
### Tag Owners
Assign an [Owner](/data-management/data-ownership.md) to your new tag. Tag Owners can be thought of as Business Owners, meaning they are responsible for maintaining the tag documentation.
Owners can be either Teams or Individuals. You'll be able to see what team an individual is part of in the dropdown.
When your tag is created, Data Managers and Admins will be able to edit the description. Use the tag description to indicate what kind of data can be found in the tag.
You may want to outline procedures for handling data with specific tags.
## Apply Tags
{% hint style="info" %}
⌨️ By holding the `Shift` key, you can select multiple consecutive tables at once.
{% endhint %}
### Tagging From Table Pages
Quickly tag columns in a table view by clicking the tag  icon in the **Tags** column. Anywhere the tag icon shows up, you'll be able to apply tags.
### Tagging From Column Pages
You can also quickly tag columns from the column page
