  1. CLARIN and the DSA Paul Trilsbeek The Language Archive Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics

  2. CLARIN • Started off as one of the ESFRI roadmap projects funded by the European Commission • Preparatory phase 2008-2011 • At launch participants from 111 institutions in 32 countries (not all part of the consortium, many joined voluntarily) • A number of national CLARIN projects launched during the preparatory phase (Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Norway)

  3. CLARIN • ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium) established in February 2012. Legal entity, governing body funded by contributions from 9 national CLARIN projects. • Most of the practical work carried out by the national projects under the governance of the ERIC to ensure interoperability by conforming to CLARIN standards and procedures.

  4. CLARIN Centres • Institutions that commit to providing certain services to the wider CLARIN community • 6 different centre types: • Type A: Infrastructure Centre • Type B: Service Providing Centre • Type K: Knowledge Centre • Type E: External Centre • Type C: Metadata Providing Centre • Type R: Recognized Centre (not yet CLARIN compatible)

  5. CLARIN Centres • A, B and E Centre requirements: …. (d) Centres need to have a proper and clearly specified repository system and participate in a quality assessment procedure as proposed by the Data Seal of Approval or MOIMS-RAC approaches. …

  6. CLARIN Centres • Recognized repository audit and certification methods such as DSA and ISO 16363:2012 (TRAC) taken as a basis • Further CLARIN specific requirements stipulated on top of this • In practice, all centers opted to go for DSA assessment

  7. Additional CLARIN requirements • Center committee determines criteria for CLARIN centers of different types • E.g.: • Taking part in national identity federation if available, support SAML2.0 AAI • Use CMDI metadata framework • Usage of PIDs mandatory

  8. CLARIN Centres and the DSA • 15 centres granted DSA • 3 further centres in the process of applying or have plans to do so • 14 certified CLARIN “type B” centres • 5 centres aiming for “type B” certification • CLARIN center assessment committee does the assessment and certification (3 rounds so far, next round coming up. First re-assessments coming up)

  9. CLARIN Centres and the DSA • Most information about the center assessment openly available on clarin.eu

  10. CLARIN Centres and the DSA • Effort required varied considerably, but in general more than initially thought • Documentation of procedures, policies and systems often did not exist or only partly • Expectations now more realistic after the first rounds of assessments

  11. CLARIN Centres and the DSA • DSA is a useful instrument to serve as the basis for the CLARIN centreassessment • Burden of basic repository assessment given to DSA board, CLARIN assessment committee can focus on CLARIN-specific requirements
