It’s good to add See References for commonly used terms that point to SCIS valid terms that are unlikely to be used by students.
Here is an example:-
Adding “Sinking and Floating → Hydrodynamics”
- Go into Data Entry.
- Click on Thesaurus tab.
- Use the Find box and type in the first few letters of Hydrodynamics (eg. hyd).
- When Hydrodynamics is found, double click on it to get to Thes Detail tab.
- Click on Record on the bar menu and select ‘Add Thes. See Reference’.
- A box will pop up prompting what the non-valid heading that will be pointing to the valid heading will be called E.g. ‘Sinking & Floating’.
- Click ‘OK’ when you are happy with the See Reference and then select ‘OK’ on the successful message.
- To check your See Reference simply click the link that says ‘Has See References’ across the top of the Thesaurus record and box will pop up a list of the See Reference for that heading.
- You may also choose to add ‘Floating & Sinking’ → Hydrodynamics.
