There are two main kinds of controlled vocabulary tools used in libraries: subject headings and thesauri.
en.wikipedia.org
They are used in subject indexing schemes, subject headings, thesauri, taxonomies and other forms of knowledge organization systems.

Taxonomies and thesauri are the foundation of an auto-classifier.

However, what distinguishes this thesaurus from all conventional thesauri is the inclusion of what the author calls rhetorically related words, or "powernyms" as opposed to merely synonymous words.
en.wikipedia.org
Its sources of information include encyclopedias, newswire reports, thesauri and dictionaries.

Access to information was notably enhanced when thesauri crossed the divide between monolingual and multilingual applications.
en.wikipedia.org
There are other types of dictionaries that don't fit neatly in the above distinction, for instance bilingual (translation) dictionaries, dictionaries of synonyms (thesauri), or rhyming dictionaries.
en.wikipedia.org
Hundreds of thesauri have been produced since then, perhaps thousands.
en.wikipedia.org
Controlled vocabularies (dictionaries and thesauri), and ontologies allow broader terms, narrower terms, and related terms to be incorporated into queries.
en.wikipedia.org
Lastly thesauri list not only equivalent terms but also narrower, broader terms and related terms among various authorized and non-authorized terms, while historically most subject headings did not.
