[Tibeto-burman-linguistics] LangArc-2023: 2nd international workshop on digital language archives

[Randy John LaPolla]

Hello all,

The 2nd International Workshop on Digital Language Archives (LangArc 2023), a virtual workshop on digital language archives – digital libraries that preserve, curate, and provide online access to language data – continues (after the initial LangArc 2021 workshop) addressing the growing need for professional solutions to challenging engagement and stewardship issues. LangArc 2023 will explore a broad scope of issues related to digital language archives. This includes challenges and opportunities, strategies and solutions for: facilitating depositing and improving access; information organization, architecture, and retrieval; quality assurance; usability; ethical issues; ways of encouraging reuse of deposited data in research and education; and coursework and other training for information professionals that will develop and maintain digital language archives. This workshop is expected to support interdisciplinary collaboration among information professionals, linguists, educators, representatives of language communities (including indigenous and other underrepresented), students, and other interested audiences.

The workshop will cover topics specific to Sino-Tibetan languages including anthropological and ethno-botanical documentation in South Asia, and a case study presented by representatives from the Central Institute of Indian Languages.
