ISO 25964-2 Published

ISO 25964-2 deals with interoperability between thesauri and other vocabularies, especially the principles and practice of mapping between them. Interoperability is defined as the ability of two or more systems or components to exchange information, and to use the information that has been exchanged. The overall focus of ISO 25964 is on thesauri, and with the exception of terminologies, comparable standards do not exist for the other vocabulary types. Rather than try to standardize them, Part 2 deals only with interoperability between these and thesauri. You can read the entire press release at: http://nkos.slis.kent.edu/PressReleaseISO25964-2.pdf
