Abstract
This paper describes the creation of a terminological glossary for the subject domain of knowledge organization systems (KOS). The glossary addresses the need for unambiguous conceptual information about the subject matter for students majoring in information science. It aims to create a glossary of definitions for concepts of different types of KOS. The theoretical and methodological foundations are based on corpus linguistics for the construction of the glossary. The methodology is characterized as an exploratory, descriptive, and applied study, using the ISKO Encyclopedia of Knowledge Organization (IEKO) as a source for data collection and terminology. The cut-off was based on the KOSs listed in NISO Z39.19 (2005; R2010) and ISO 25964 (2011; 2013). It is hoped that the terminological glossary created will improve students’ understanding of the different KOSs, by compiling definitions and giving them greater semantics.
