Vocabulary Management

Centralised management of vocabularies enables users within an organisation, or those across an entire industry sector, to identify and view definitive terms; to ascertain their relationships, context, previous iterations and unique web address identifier, and to download these individual terms or complete vocabularies. This provides a trusted source of approved terminologies to support a whole range of content classification tasks, and the opportunity to synchronise metadata models and semantics used throughout enterprise applications and information systems.

Evolution of Lexaurus Bank

Lexaurus Bank has evolved from a solution initially developed for Becta and subsequently the DCSF (Department for Children, Schools and Families), which became the Vocabulary Management Service for the publication of controlled vocabularies within the UK education sector, managing over 70 curriculum vocabularies. Lexaurus Bank is also now a central component of the European Schoolnet ASPECT project to deliver a multi-lingual Vocabulary Bank for Education supporting the entire European schools sector.

Lexaurus Bank is now at version 4 that has added RSS feeds and improved loading, search and navigation.
