Abstract

From the 1994 CAIS Conference: The Information Industry in Transition McGill University, Montreal, Quebec. May 25 - 27, 1994.While institutional members of an information network may share the use of a common thesaurus, most institutions will need to make additions or changes to the thesaurus based on their particular requirements. Automated thesaurus management systems have not usually taken into account the needs for such local adaptations. While the requirements for networked thesaurus management are complex, it is possible, even in a simple microcomputer-based environment, to meet a significant number of those requirements with a few simple functions. This paper describes basic requirements for managing thesauri in networks, and the means by which these requirements are supported in a specific microcomputer-based multilingual thesaurus system.
