    The use of Vocabulary Encoding Schemes is a main practice in RDA cataloguing. RDA is a flexible standard that allows extensions in its cataloging practices (in fact, RDA Toolkit has a specific space for community resources that, among other things, will contain several local controlled vocabularies). Beyond this standard, or perhaps because of its influence, the use of controlled vocabularies is a practice increasingly used globally. The fact that ALMA only allows manual implementation of controlled vocabularies term by term, instead of being able to import them from a CSV or similar, is a rather difficult obstacle to overcome, and above all, quite difficult to understand in 2024.
