Workshop: A common vocabulary to classify resources in the life sciences

A one day workshop, organised by ELIXIR, BioMedBridges and RDA, was held on 16 October 2014 in Brussels to kick-start agreement on a common topics vocabulary to classify resources in the life sciences domain, including databases, tools, courses, training materials, meetings, jobs and publications. Service providers and registries currently use different vocabularies to classify resources. From the user point of view, a common topics vocabulary would enhance the ability to find related resources of interest.
