Overview

The concept library is a system for storing, managing, sharing, and documenting clinical code lists in health research. The specific goals of this work are:

  • To store code lists along with metadata which captures important information about quality, author, etc.
  • To store version history and provide a way to unambiguously reference a particular version of a code list.
  • Allowing programmatic interaction with code lists via an API, so that they can be directly used in queries, statistical scripts, etc.
  • Providing a mechanism for sharing code lists between projects and organizations.

Access

The Concept Library is currently available to users of the SAIL Databank.

A user can Log-in using their SAIL credentials on the following websites:
