DCS - Digital Curation Service
SummaryThe Digital Curation Service was a CLARIN task force responsible for the curation of several language resources that were not available on-line and/or endangered without a proper documentation context (adding CMDI metadata etc.). The DCS has curated these data and made them available by depositing them at different CLARIN centra.
BackgroundIn October 2011 the Data Curation Service (DCS) was established. The DCS was supported by CLARIN-NL until 1 January 2014. The DCS was charged with:
- the curation of resources, especially those presently held by individual researchers or research groups;
- assisting in the curation efforts of CLARIN centres (if and when such is desired);
- advising researchers who wanted to undertake the curation of their resources themselves.
The DCS was involved in the curation of the following resources:
