  • Description: The new language dispensation in South Africa has resulted in the development, the elaboration, the manangement and the dissemination of terminological information in eleven official languages. A modified terminology management program must be created for the needs of a new terminology community. Such a model should ideally be implemented at the Terminology Coordination Section of the National Language Service. In the first section of this article a model is proposed for successful terminology management within a terminology management centre. In the second section of the article the implication of the model is explicated within the South African situation to establish how the terminology management program should be adjusted to satisfy the needs of the new language dispensation as well as how to adequately reach the intended target group(s).
