Tags in purchased tilesets

Hello! I recently purchased two map packs,  this one and  this one. They are great, easy to use and look good. However... They are not tagged. I can't simply search and drop. I have to scroll up and down the library... obscuring the map and making the process slower. I know I could tag them all myselft, but doing that with 200+ images is time consuming and not something I would like to do. Is there a ways to auto-tag them? Or make it so that they come tagged?

IIRC, the artist does  submit tags for their images, but those tags don't show up for some reason in your library. This is, of course, unfortunate, but try guessing some obvious tags for an image and searching for it in the asset search tab and see if your purchased assets pop up.

the artist must submit tags as part of his/her file name as part of the acceptance procedure for roll20. Those tags are not currently usable in personal searches (they work in marketplace searches IIRC). 
I tried your suggestion, but it works sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. Some images only come up with two tags, some didn't come up at all. I actually need to search the name the artist used for each image, but thanks for the insight. Should speed things up!

The way I use to tag art assets is the following: 1: Click on the black star to bring up the art manager 2: type in the package title of your art assets you purchased in the search bar to filter out all the assets except them. 3: Now start click on each art asset as you move through your package. Once you have all the ones you want to tag, enter the tag and click add. This will put that specific tag on all the assets you clicked on. It is the quickest way that I know of to put global tags on the art assets. It takes some prep work but it puts a tag on lots of them.
