Management and distribution
Management of the official language versions of the Eurovoc thesaurus is ensured by Publication Office through the Eurovoc Maintenance Team, which is further subdivided to the Maintenance Committee and Steering Committee. These organizations receive proposals for changes and amendments of Eurovoc and prepare new versions and translations.

The national versions of Eurovoc for non-membership countries are managed or translated by the authorities in individual countries. Until May 1 2004 the Czech version of Eurovoc was managed and distributed by the Czech Parliamentary Library.
However the Parliamentary Library is still in close contact with all institutions that use the Czech version of Eurovoc. It is possible to send specific comments on the lexical units as well as the structure of Eurovoc to the contact address. Such comments are revised and possibly incorporated into the thesaurus or submitted to the international administrator.
