>> School of Oriental and African Studies, London, with additional  
>> significant participation this year from the Deafness Cognition and  
>> Language Research Centre (DCAL) based at University College London.  
>> It follows on from the success of the first 3L Summer School held  
>> in Lyon in 2008.
>>
>> The school focuses on providing theoretical knowledge necessary to  
>> pursue language documentation and description in tandem with  
>> offering hands on training in technical areas of language  
>> documentation, data management and archiving.
>>
>> It features courses covering a wide range of topics that include  
>> lexicography, data management and archiving, the use of media in  
>> language documentation, sign language documentation, linguistic  
>> typology and areal linguistics, with a full day dedicated to  
>> practical training in using software tools, advanced video and  
>> advanced audio documentation.
>>
>> Please note that scholarships are available which in many cases  
>> cover the full cost of attending the summer school. Please see the  
>> website for details. It is also anticipated that sign language  
>> interpretation services will be available in both BSL and ASL.
