The Language Repository of Switzerland (LaRS) is a national platform for the publication of linguistic research data. LaRS uses SWISSUbase as its repository system. It provides Swiss research institutions with a reliable data infrastructure. LaRS facilitates access to research data and projects across the linguistic domain. Furthermore, a team of data curators contribute towards a high level of data and metadata quality.
LaRS uses SWISSUbase as its repository system. SWISSUbase facilitates access to research data and projects across different disciplines and provides Swiss research institutions with a reliable data infrastructure.
SWISSUbase is operated in partnership between FORS and the Universities of Zurich and Lausanne. The following Data Service Units (DSUs) use SWISSUbase, and additional partners and DSUs are welcome:
LaRS @ SWISSUbase is the data repository for CLARIN-CH, the Swiss node of CLARIN (short for Common Language Resources and Language Technology). CLARIN is a pan-european digital infrastructure which provides easy and sustainable access to a broad range of language data and tools. In Switzerland, CLARIN-CH adresses the needs of Swiss researchers working with language data when it comes to the collection, protection, sharing and preservation of research data in the context of Open Science and FAIR principles, provides support and fosters cooperation.
Researchers in linguistics at PhD level and above can publish and archive data free of charge. The requirements are institutional representation in the CLARIN CH consortium and a SWITCH edu-ID.
LaRS allows you to publish and archive data collections in file form. You can publish all types of data (text, audio, video, image, programming scripts etc.) as long as their format is suitable for long-term storage.
In addition, you must comply with data protection regulations. The publication of sufficient documentation material is recommended and required by research funders. Please refer to the LaRS Policy
Log in to https://www.swissubase.ch with your SWITCH edu-ID and choose "Linguistics" as scientific domain. More information can be found under Resources.
LaRS works closely with LiRI (Linguistic Research Infrastructure). If you are interested in processing data and preparing it for long-term archiving, contact us at: info.liri@linguistik.uzh.ch
CLARIN CH provides some information and recommendations for researchers regarding standard data formats.
