exercises in the workbook (Tutorial letter 102). Construct thesaurus entries from
the following lists of terms: Clinics Health institutions Hospitals Doctors Add
references to broader, narrower, related, forbidden and preferred terms as you think
necessary. Also, include examples of scope notes. Arrange your entries in
alphabetical order. With regard to reciprocal entries, remember: RT always refers
to RT (related term) BT (broader term) always refers to NT (narrower term) NT
always refers to BT U (use) always refers to UF (used for) (U prohibits further use
of the term, and UF refers to the preferred term) Please note that it is not a
thesaurus if you only create a BT, RT, NT, SN, U and UF for each of the five
terms. You will have to add additional terms to show the relationships between
terms and to add reciprocal entries. Also create ONE thesaurus, using all five terms
as a starting point. Your thesaurus must include more terms than the ones given.
(15 marks) NB: No marks will be given if you do not include valid reciprocal
entries in your thesaurus. The following rubric will be used for this question:
