Glossary Pages

Go Up to Resource Pages

Glossary pages provide information about glossaries: activity, details, terms included, discussions about them, people who are following them, and child glossaries. They are only available for social users.

To open a glossary page, follow a glossary link. There are several places where you can find glossary links, but if you are looking for a specific glossary, you can try the Glossaries search page.

Glossary pages share a common header, and they also share a common sidebar. When you click the items in the sidebar, you get access to information pages about different aspects of the target glossary.
