Lexical Database Archiving Questionnaire

Email Text Body

Last year the SIL Archive did an analysis of what kinds of materials are being submitted to SIL's Language and Culture Archive. During the 2012 year only 4 FLEx data sets were submitted to the archive (and about 6 Toolbox datasets). The archive is looking to see if this is a broader trend among linguists (and more generally lexical database users) or if it is unique to SIL contexts.

We are particularly expecting responses from people who work with minority languages but all lexicographic database users are open to respond to the Questionnaire. We are asking 4 questions and we estimate the whole thing takes about three minutes to complete:

If you are a creator or user of lexical databases (like Toolbox, FLEx, or Lexus, etc.):
