RCA Thesaurus, a brand owned by RCA Victor, was a supplier of electrical transcriptions. Efforts were made as early as 1936 to consolidate The RCA Victor Transcription service with NBC's independent transcription service within the NBC radio network. NBC'sThesaurus catalog system and library of recordings was not completely merged with RCA's catalog until 1939 when the consolidation was completed in an effort to compete with rival transcription services which were available at the Mutual, Columbia and World Broadcasting Systems. In 1953 RCA Thesaurus bought a library of 1600 transcriptions.

During the 1950s, RCA Thesaurus produced under the musical direction of Ben Selvin in New York City. In 1953 RCA Thesaurus bought a library of 1600 transcriptions.
