Terminologies
Usually for Object name Place Person Organisation ‘Subjects’
Some multilingual thesauri ICOM Costume Committee’s Vocabulary of Basic Terms for
Cataloguing Costume (English, French and German), Iconclass (English, French, German and Italian), and the Getty’s Art & Architecture Thesaurus (AAT), (Dutch, English and Spanish)
But lack of common terminologies in European countries

Linking objects
Musketti (Finnish national museum) Mesmuses project

EROS database – community specific
Multilingual vocabulary (Catalan, Danish, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish) set up for the indexing of the scientific and restoration reports
Controlled lists of terms as well as the free text information fields (such as the titles) have been translated from French to English, to Portuguese and to Japanese
