Anna L. Shparberg · The Charleston Advisor · 2023
The Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) creates, stores, and distributes language resources, in particular language corpora, for educational, governmental, and commercial purposes. At this time, the number of corpora available on the LDC platform exceeds 900, and new ones are added on a monthly basis. Since its founding in 1992, LDC has had thousands of members such as universities, libraries, government research laboratories, and corporations. While there is a plethora of language resources available to researchers these days, LDC continues to stand out by offering an unparalleled selection of carefully curated corpora combined with a variety of linguistic tools.
