Request for info - Language Surveys

[Joana Jansen]

 Here are a couple of good resources for language surveys.

 You could take a look at the Indigenous Language Institute Handbook 
 Series (http://www.indigenous-language.org/).  Handbook 3 is "Conducting 
 a Language Survey."

 Also, a 2010 InField Workshop by Mary Linn and Keren Rice addressed 
 surveys, and the web page from the workshop has a number of resources:
