It has been said that the Liber glossarum was part of a larger effort by the Carolingian emperors and especially Charlemagne to reform the areas of religion, royal administration, monastic organizations, and language.
Govori se da je Liber glosarum bio deo većih napora karolinških imperatora, a naročito Karla Velikog, kako bi reformisao oblasti religije, kraljevske uprave, monaške organizacije i jezik.
