Its specific focus is on best practices identified in the exploitation of these resources in landmark impact initiatives across different parts of the globe. The development of increasingly accessible digital corpora has coincided with improvements in the standards governing the collection, encoding and archiving of ?Big Data?. Less attention has been paid to the importance of developing standards for enriching and preserving other types of corpus data, such as that which captures the nuances of regional dialects, for example. This book takes these best practices another step forward by addressing innovative methods for enhancing and exploiting specialized corpora so that they become accessible to wider audiences beyond the academy. Karen P. Corrigan is Professor of Linguistics and English Language at Newcastle University. She has previously lectured at University College, Dublin and the Universities of Edinburgh and York (UK). She co-edited the two previous volumes in this collection and is author of Irish English, Volume 1: Northern Ireland (2010). Adam Mearns is Lecturer in the History of the English Language at Newcastle University. He has previously taught at the Universities of Sheffield and Leeds and at Northumbria University. Recent publications have focused on the dialect of Tyneside and the concept of the supernatural in Old English. 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aSociolinguistics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N44000 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 14$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a306.44 702 $aCorrigan$b Karen P$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMearns$b Adam$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253344203321 996 $aCreating and Digitizing Language Corpora$92541321 997 $aUNINA
