Sažetak
New knowledge necessary for tourism development is based on existing knowledge, documents and data provided by university and research libraries, documentation centers, databases, using the "same language" both while bibliographic processing and search/retrieval. Thesaurus, being a
controlled and dynamic vocabulary of such a language, should reflect all the complexity of tourism which has been developing as a common denominator for a set of various sciences, disciplines and activities, starting with their methodology and terminology, but at the same time progressing
developing its own scientific paradigm. An interdisciplinary and multilingual thesaurus of tourism still does not exist and the Institute for Tourism starts with a project for its development.
Described are basic characteristics of a thesaurus, methods of work (both analytical and syntetic or systematic), external and internal features needed for establishment of its structure. In more detail is described the work done so far, which comprises term collection - key words (both in Croatian and
English) which should represent the basic corpus of candidates for descriptors, and which must be "literary warrant", i.e. taken from a source with verified scientific authority.
