Angelika Breiteneder, Theresa Klimpfinger, Stefan Majewski, Marie-Luise
Pitzl (project researchers) at the University of Vienna. VOICE 1.0 Online
with (just over) one million words breaks new ground in that it is the
first corpus of English as lingua franca (ELF) to become publicly available.

The release of VOICE 1.0 Online is also accompanied by corpus
documentation, statistics and detailed user instructions for the online
search interface, all of which can be accessed at the VOICE website
