The Computational Resources for South Asian Languages (CoRSAL)
language archive will hold its IX annual meeting Dec 11th and
12th 2025 from 10:00am-6:00pm IST.  Join us via ZOOM.  Link provided
upon registration.  
Register at: https://go.iu.edu/8vPg
The goal of the event is to
(1) create awareness in India of the CoRSAL digital language archive
and
(2) to explore avenues of research and
(3) academic collaboration between IU and Indian partners.  
The event brings together CoRSAL students and faculty collaborators
with Indian colleagues, students, and cultural leaders to uncover
common issues, needs, and strategies for creating and accessing
resources on South Asian languages.  A precursor to these
conversations was the 8th symposium of the Computational Resource for
South Asian Languages held at IUB in October 2024.  
Participants will explore
1) language documentation and archival practices in India;
2) content-sharing among users in the region,
3) digital technologies for access to South Asian cultural and
linguistic heritage materials and
4) shared and differing metadata and archiving standards for language
documentation. 
CoRSAL is a joint project of IUB Linguistics and the University of
North Texas Digital Library (PI Shobhana Chelliah, IUB and Mark
Phillips, UNT). CoRSAL works with language communities to document,
preserve, and develop open-access platforms on South Asian languages.
CoRSAL offers free virtual and in-person workshops on language
documentation and archiving through which Indian students and faculty
gain the library and preservation skills necessary to advance language
documentation in support of scientific understanding of language (its
history, and structure) and the cultural and linguistic vitality of
language use.
