# OCLC Terminologies Services Pilot

OCLC is exploring a service that provides access to multiple controlled vocabularies for libraries, museums, and archives to create consistent metadata for their collections. Selected mappings between vocabularies are provided to assist in relating terminology. The service would provide one-stop access to terminology resources and would be accessible through any web-based metadata editor. For more information about the pilot see the project description project description and its terms and conditions of use terms and conditions of use.
