Funding

The project for Sustainability of Linguistic Data (NaLiDa) is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) in the program for Scientific Library Services and Information Systems (LIS).

First Project Phase

The goal of NaLiDa is the development of sustainable structures for reusable description and archiving of research data in linguistics. In the first project phase (01.03.2010-28.02.2012), NaLiDa operated research based and area specific. Language resources were systematically collected, acquired and described with metadata. Those resources were then added and archived into an area specific repository. Dedicated search tools allow linguists to search and work with resources. NaLiDa supported and advised creators of resources.

Second Project Phase

In the 2nd funding phase of the NaLiDa project, the collection, description and archiving of resources were continued. However, the scope was broadened, taking into account more generic, non-area specific solutions for the sustainable archiving of research data. In that phase, the 'Seminar für Sprachwissenschaft' (department of linguistics) was included as junior partner. The overall control for the 2nd. project phase was given to the 'Informations-, Kommunikations- und Medienzentrum' (centre for information, communication and media, IKM) of the University of Tübingen. The IKM is composed of the university library and the centre for data processing.

Project start: 01.10.2013 (IKM), 01.01.2014 (Department of Linguistics (SfS))

Project end: 31.12.2015 (IKM), 15.03.2016 (SfS)
