+# Instructions for Creating a New Term Request
+
+1. Navigate to the [Issues](https://github.com/CommonCoreOntology/CommonCoreOntologies/issues) tab.
+
+2. On the top right, select “New issue”.
+
+3. Title the issue with the format: “New Term: [name of the proposed term]”
+
+4. State which ontology file the new term will be added to. 
+
+5. Describe the scope of the term and any reasoning for its inclusion as clearly as possible. In particular, note any related terms in the relevant ontology and why they are inadequate in addressing the need that the new term supports.
+
+6. As best you can, include initial proposals for:
+   
+   a.	Rdfs:label
+
+   b.	Definition
+
+   c.	Source
+   
+   d.	Parent class
+
+   
+See Issue [#306](https://github.com/CommonCoreOntology/CommonCoreOntologies/issues/306) for an example of an existing term request that meets these criteria.
