A further responsibility of COMCIFS is to try to harmonize the treatment of similar data requirements in different dictionaries and to maintain maximum compatibility between data files originating from different subdisciplines. To achieve this, COMCIFS can officially approve dictionaries submitted to and reviewed by it. It is these `official' dictionaries that are included in this volume. Provisional dictionaries may also be issued and used within the relevant community before formal approval is given.
