CLARIN-UK workshop
A pre-conference workshop at the Corpus Linguistics 2017 conference took place on 24 July 2017 at the University of Birmingham and provided a showcase for the CLARIN-UK consortium members to present their work in promoting the use of language corpora and corpus linguistics methods in many different academic disciplines. The programme included a series of presentations from the CLARIN-UK Centres about the areas in which they have experience of working in collaboration with disciplines outside of linguistics, and in which they have promoted the use of digital language resources and tools to facilitate new and innovative forms of research. There were also presentations about the Europe-wide activities of CLARIN and from another CLARIN country, the Netherlands. Visit the workshop page for more information about its background and participants.
