Abstract

The relevance of the issue and the publication of descriptive vocabularies by several disciplines, as a mean to classify published information, motivated the authors to develop a similar experience for the nursing discipline. The objective of the present study is the elaboration of a descriptive vocabulary, that can be used by the public in the search of information, by librarians when doing the classification of bibliographical themes and by documentalists when preparing resumèes. Procedures are described and long, mediun and short range goals for the implementation of a Brazilian Nursing are commented.
