Registration is free and does not commit you to anything. Registration gives you access to sections that are mostly used by more experienced colleagues. This makes the Lexicon more user-friendly for the general public and does not overload them with overly specific functions.
Premium sections of the Lexicon and functions that will be displayed to you after registering and logging in as a registered user:
| More detailed specifications | Description |
