+## Description
+
+Fixes #2746 - Inactive controlled vocabulary terms now filtered from dropdown menus when `HYRAX_FLEXIBLE=false`
+
+### Problem
+When `HYRAX_FLEXIBLE=false`, inactive controlled vocabulary terms (marked with `active: false` in YAML files like `config/authorities/licenses.yml`) were appearing in dropdown menus on work deposit forms. For example, all 17 licenses were showing instead of just the 8 active ones.
+
+### Solution
+Added `select_active_options` methods to all local vocabulary services and updated the form helper to prioritize these methods, which filter out inactive terms while maintaining backward compatibility.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### Modified Files
+
+1. **`app/helpers/hyrax/form_helper_behavior.rb`**
+   - Updated `local_vocabulary_options_for` to call `select_active_options` first (filters inactive terms)
+   - Falls back to `select_all_options` or `select_options` for backward compatibility
+   - Added inline comments explaining the prioritization logic
+
+2. **`app/services/hyrax/audience_service.rb`**
+   - Added `select_active_options` method that filters by `active: true`
+   - Maintains existing `select_all_options` for compatibility
+
+3. **`app/services/hyrax/discipline_service.rb`**
+   - Added `select_active_options` method
+
+4. **`app/services/hyrax/education_levels_service.rb`**
+   - Added `select_active_options` method
+
+5. **`app/services/hyrax/learning_resource_types_service.rb`**
+   - Added `select_active_options` method
+
+6. **`app/services/hyrax/oer_types_service.rb`**
+   - Added `select_active_options` method
+
+7. **`app/services/hyrax/resource_types_service.rb`** (new file)
+   - Created Hyku override of Hyrax's ResourceTypesService
+   - Added `select_active_options` method
+   - Maintains Hyrax's original `select_options` method
+
+8. **`spec/services/controlled_vocabularies_spec.rb`**
+   - Added new describe block "Active Term Filtering (Issue #2746)"
+   - Added 3 new test examples verifying the fix
+   - All services implement `select_active_options`
+   - Filtering works correctly (8 active licenses vs 17 total)
+   - Form helper uses `select_active_options` when available
+
+## How It Works
+
+- **New works**: Only active terms appear in dropdown menus
+- **Existing works**: Inactive terms that are already selected will still display in edit forms (handled by existing `QaSelectServiceDecorator.include_current_value` method)
+- **Backward compatibility**: Services still have `select_all_options` methods for code that may depend on them
+
+## Testing
+
+### Automated Tests
+✅ All 22 specs passing in `controlled_vocabularies_spec.rb` (19 existing + 3 new)
+
+### Manual Testing
+1. Set `HYRAX_FLEXIBLE=false` in environment
+2. Navigate to work deposit form (e.g., `/concern/generic_works/new`)
+3. Check License dropdown - should show only 8 active licenses (not all 17)
+4. Verify other controlled vocabulary fields (Resource Type, Audience, Discipline, etc.) show only active terms
+5. Edit an existing work with an inactive term - the inactive term should still appear with `.force-select` class
+
+### Test Results
+```bash
+bundle exec rspec [controlled_vocabularies_spec.rb](http://_vscodecontentref_/0)
+# 22 examples, 0 failures
+```
+
+## Screenshots
+
+_Add screenshots showing before/after of dropdown menus here_
+
+### Before
+- License dropdown showing all 17 licenses (including inactive ones)
+
+### After  
+- License dropdown showing only 8 active licenses
+
+## Related Issues
+
+Closes #2746
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [x] Tests added/updated
+- [x] Documentation updated (inline comments)
+- [x] No breaking changes
+- [x] Backward compatible
+- [ ] Tested manually in browser
+- [ ] Screenshots added
+
+## Notes
+
+This fix aligns with how Hyrax's `QaSelectService` is designed to work - it has both `select_all_options` and `select_active_options` methods. The Hyku local vocabulary services were only implementing `select_all_options`, causing inactive terms to appear. Now they implement both methods, allowing the form helper to choose the appropriate one.
