Thesaurus definition

A Thesaurus is an agreed set of standard words and terms.

Standard Thesauri are available, for example one that follows the International Standards Organization (ISO) definition, or you could create your own set of standard terms.

The Content Manager Thesaurus has been designed to follow the recommendations of ISO 2788 - Guidelines for the establishment and development of monolingual thesauri.

Use in Content Manager

Users can use the Thesaurus terms to create record titles or attach them to a record.
