Notes

Abstract: Language archives connect users such as language communities, linguists, and other researchers, to language data. As the language archiving community develops, concerns have been raised about the ethics, ownership, accessibility, and context of archival materials. While there are no simple solutions to these questions, many language archives are seeking ways to involve language community members in these conversations as they continue. This presentation describes a pilot project undertaken at the Computational Resource for South Asian Languages (CoRSAL) which explores a collaborative archiving approach to enable language community members to tell their own stories by adding contextual information to archival materials.
