Abstract
For many years, in language policy documents in Slovenia, the establishing of a terminology portal that would integrate all available terminological resources was planned. Therefore, we have analyzed freely accessible Slovenian terminological websites (Terminologišče, Termania, Evroterm) and individual specialized dictionary projects (Islovar, EZS glosar, Slovar zavarovalnih izrazov).
These resources have different designs, one or more authors, various number of resources or subject fields, some of them contain definitions and equivalents, so the question arises on how to reasonably combine them in one place. It is very important to determine its primary addressee in the initial phase of planning of the portal since different terminology users (e.g. subject field experts, translators, proofreaders) have different needs.
Therefore, it is very important to consider how to organize terminological resources and ensure their updating. We find the Croatian Terminology Portal (http://nazivlje.hr/), which offers a unique search engine for all terminological sources that are a part of larger groups, sufficiently transparent and user-friendly for that purpose.
