Abstract
This paper aims to explore and analyse the landscape of existing knowledge organization systems and approaches, such as thesauri and classification systems, developed to organize and facilitate access to bioethical literature. The primary goal is to understand the methodologies and frameworks used in these systems, highlighting their strengths and limitations in supporting interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research in bioethics. By examining how these systems categorize and structure bioethical concepts, the review seeks to identify common challenges and propose potential improvements for enhancing the accessibility and comprehensiveness of subject access to bioethical information. The aim of the review is to contribute to the ongoing development of pluriperspectivity and robustness of knowledge organization systems that reflect the evolving discipline of bioethics. The paper is based on a doctoral dissertation of the author.
