| Summary: | For information storage and retrieval, a thesaurus is used during indexing and searching processes to translate from natural language into a more restricted retrieval system language. The purpose of this thesaurus is to control the language used to index and retrieve documents of interest to Social and Rehabilitation Service (SRS) and the personnel it serves. At present the indexing so controlled is the SRS "Research Information System Index." Searchers using that document need to be guided by the thesaurus. SRS hopes, however, that the effort expended to study the SRS language and to set it forth, showing interrelationships among terms, will be of use also to those interested in such things as social science language "per se," the scope of activities of SRS, and the categories of clients served. There are three sections to this thesaurus, presenting three arrangements of its terminology. The first is an alphabetic list of terms, both those accepted as system terms and those that refer the user to system terms. The second is a hierarchic arrangement of system terms only. The third is an alphabetic word index to every word used in a multiword term. (The SRS "Research Information System" instruction manual is available as LI 004304.) (Author/NH) |
