This attribute is used with two different definitions.
  • The most common is the name of the thesaurus, ontology, or organization that established a particular group of keywords, for example, “MESH”, “ISO-463”, “IEEE”, “author-generated”, “ICD9-codes”, etc.
  • The second usage describes the type of keyword for some of the more unusual keyword groups (for example, “hierarchical” for keywords that are grouped into a hierarchy, “abbreviations” for keywords that contain an abbreviation and its expansion, or “code” for keywords that contain a code and its text but where the source of the codes is unknown).
