Archive

The Endangered Languages Archive (ELAR) is a digital repository for the documentations and descriptions of endangered languages as a result of work by ELDP grantees and others. If you are interested in depositing with us, see the Depositors' page.

We aim to:

• provide a safe long-term repository of language materials
• enable people to see what documentation has been created for a language
• encourage international co-operation between researchers
• provide advice and collaboration

ELAR is part of the Digital Endangered Languages and Musics Archives Network (DELAMAN) an international network of digital endangered language archives, which includes the DoBeS archive at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in the Netherlands, the Archive for the Indigenous Languages of Latin America at the University of Texas, and the Pacific And Regional Archive for Digital Sources in Endangered Cultures in Australia.
