Soutron Metadata Thesaurus

Create & Improve Business Glossaries

The Soutron Thesaurus was designed to support archivists, librarians, knowledge and information managers responsible for managing term lists, authority files, taxonomies, and thesauri.

Information professionals in archives, libraries and other cultural heritage institutions that work with digitalisation projects, cataloguing, classifying materials for information retrieval all benefit from controlled vocabularies, which help ensure that terms, abbreviations, and acronyms are consistent and accurate. This controlled vocabulary provides an index for accessing and retrieving content through browsing and searching in a consistent and accurate manner. It also improves data discovery, enhances data terminology consistency and accuracy and standardises communications.
