The CLARIN Annual Conference 2016 was held in Aix-en-Provence and drew a record number of participants. The photo shows two French delegates. The Nordic CLARIN Network is organizing a workshop in Bergen on November 9, 2016. A special theme at this workshop is language data and analysis for the Social and Political Sciences. On September 23, the LAP (Language Analysis Portal) was publicly launched at IFI, University of Oslo. On 1 – 2 September 2016, University of Bergen hosted a meeting between the CLARIN ERIC National Coordinators. Among the 19 participants were the National Coordinators of two of the three newest CLARIN ERIC members: Tamás Váradi from Hungary (to the left on the picture) and Jurgita Vaičenonienė from Lithuania (to the right). Prof. Koenraad De Smedt (coordinator of the CLARINO project) was interviewed by the University of Bergen. He stated, among other things, that the CLARIN infrastructure is essential to make language resources and tools available across Europe. Read the interview here. (The interview is in Norwegian.)
