College of Europe Library Catalogue Thesaurus
The subject keywords used in this catalogue are a subset of the ECLAS (European Commission Library Automated System) thesaurus developed by the Central Library of the Commission of the European Communities. This thesaurus dates from 1978, when the catalogues of the Central Library of the Commission were computerised. Needless to say that it has been updated a certain times since. ECLAS itself is largely based on the OECD- and ILO-thesauri.
