These resources are made available through the SADiLaR Language Resource Repository as downloadable content through the Language Resource Catalogue and Language Resource Index.

How to use the resources
Access to the repository is open to anyone with an interest in language technologies. Resources in the repository are searchable or discoverable but not always downloadable.
The repository contains metadata for all assets in the repository, those that can be downloaded and those that can be requested by the person listed as the contact person for the specific asset.
Resources where the files can be downloaded can be done so after accepting the terms of use.
The downloadable resources can include different formats including sound recordings in MP3, PDF documents and usable applications amongst others.
If you wish to submit a resource please see detailed instructions for this on the SADiLaR website, under resource guidelines.
Who can submit?
Anyone with research data in the fields of languages, humanities and social sciences can submit their data to the SADiLaR repository. It is an easier process if your university is registered with SAFIRE, but we offer support throughout the submission process. So, if you have a dataset we can help you to ensure that your research is made available on a secure environment with the right licensing procedures.
For more information on how to submit a resource visit our Resource Guidelines page.
