ENOn 23 December 2003, the Law on the Term Bank of the Republic of Lithuania was adopted, so at the end of 2023 it will be twenty years since the management of legal terminology in Lithuania has been regulated by a separate law. This article aims to add historical, factual, and terminological data to previous research. The aim of the article is to show the development and implementation of the Law on the Term Bank, the changes in the Term Bank, especially over the last ten years, the dynamics of the activities of the state institutions contributing to the creation of the Term Bank, and the specificity of the content of this database. Administered by the State Commission of the Lithuanian Language, the Term Bank acts as a centralised system aimed at providing reliable sources of terminology. It enables various interested groups of society to have access to terminologically evaluated term resources. The Term Bank, established by the law, already covers around 278,000 term entries, most of which are based on data from dictionaries of terms. The diversity of data in the database is increasing. Since its launch, the Term Bank has been filled with data from the recommendations of the Language Commission, mainly covering biological nomenclature; in the last decade, it has also been expanded to include terms from standards as well as terms collected from textbooks of higher education institutions. Legislative terminology (the management of which is a particularly important function of the Term Bank) is a relatively small part of the overall database.Around 19,000 approved legal terminology entries have been published. Dozens of public authorities have contributed to the creation of this data and the management of this data is particularly time-consuming. One large database, covering sources of different types, allows users to see the differences in terms and definitions between these sources. The variety of data makes the database difficult to use, as it is necessary to select the relevant data, but it allows a better understanding of the current state of terminology in different fields. In the overall context of terminology, the terminology of legislation emerges as a particularly distinctive material. It can be argued that legal terminology is less terminological than scientific terminology. [From the publication]
