Terminfo online magazine

The Finnish Terminology Centre publishes a quarterly online magazine called Terminfo that specializes in terminological issues. The objective of the magazine is to give information on the usage of special language terms, on principles and methods of terminology work, on ongoing and future terminology projects, as well as on literature, seminars, courses etc. in the field of terminology.

Publications

Most of the terminology work carried out by the Finnish Terminology Centre results in glossaries. The platform of publication of these glossaries varies: many of the glossaries are published on our web pages in PDF format or in our TEPA Term Bank.

R & D and standardisation

Although the Finnish Terminology Centre is not really a research institute, we keep ourselves up-to-date with the theory of terminology. The systematic application of the theory is also one of our best assets in developing the methods of practical terminology work and using them in our projects. In addition, several research projects have been carried out by the Terminology Centre during the past few years, dealing with the development of the methods and tools for terminology work.

Reference library

The Finnish Terminology Centre maintains a reference library specialised in glossaries and dictionaries, both for its own in-house use and to be consulted by clients. Most of the publications in the collection are glossaries in different domains, and dictionaries.

TEPA term bank

TEPA is a term bank compiled and maintained by the Finnish Terminology Centre TSK. TEPA contains special language terms and corresponding definitions presented in the form of multilingual terminological entries. The core of TEPA is formed by the Terminology Centre's own publications, but TEPA also contains field-specific glossaries, dictionaries and terminological databases compiled by other expert organisations.
