Controlled Vocabularies: A Glosso-Thesaurus
“(…) the glossary is itself a controlled vocabulary, more specifically a thesaurus. So you will find all of the standard features of any thesaurus: broader, narrower, and variant term indicators, as well as scope notes. In this case, however, the scope notes provide the definition of the particular glossary term being presented.” (Karl Fast et al. – Boxes and Arrows)
