The Language Documentation and Linguistic Theory biennial conference aims to bring together researchers working on linguistic theory and language documentation and description, with a particular focus on innovative work on under-described or endangered languages.
The main session of Language Documentation and Linguistic Theory 3 will run over two days. In addition to parallel sessions on 19 and 20 November 2011, the conference will be preceded by a satellite Workshop on Language Documentation and Archiving, to be held on 18 November 2011.
The Leiden University Centre for Linguistics (LUCL) will host a two-day conference: Language Documentation and Description in the Netherlands.
The Netherlands is a leading place where languages with different degrees of vitality from all parts of the world are being documented, described and theorized about. However, this vast resource for the humanities, social and cognitive sciences has never been show-cased in one place before. To round-off the Endangered Languages Programme (ELP), a funding initiative of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), a two-day international conference is being organized at Leiden University on April 8-9, 2011, to provide a forum for putting this work on stage in conference presentations as well as posters.
The 2009 Conference on Community-Based Language Revival will be hosted by The Three Rivers Language Center, Indiana University-Purdue University, Fort Wayne, Indiana, August 29-30, 2009.
