The LingSIG has among its intended deliverables a collection of bibliographic references to publications/presentations that address linguistic or language-resource issues either from the perspective of the TEI, or that are considered relevant for TEI-based systems that may be constructed in the future.
We now use Zotero as the primary tool for collecting references. Zotero started out as a Firefox add-on but is now also available for the users of Safari and Chrome, and an independent, free-standing (and free) version is forthcoming. It also has Open Office and MS Office plugins that allow for easy insertion of references into your documents.
Zotero accepts various bibliographic formats as its input and, crucially for us, has tools that make export to TEI XML possible: TEI-Zotero Translator (another Firefox add-on) as well as ZoteroToTEI, which is an XSLT 2.0 script and thus a cross-platform tool. See also http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/tei for current info on these and possibly also other tools.
The LingSIG reference collection is to be found in the library section of the TEI-LingSIG group.
How to use Zotero for sharing your references
To be written... Briefly, you need a free account at Zotero and you need to join the TEI-LingSIG group, and the rest is a matter of point-and-click-and-edit. Please be careful not to delete items from the shared library, there is unfortunately no setting that would guard us against that short of restricting the number of editors, which would be rather impractical.
Note the existence of the FreeCite citation parser, which is able to turn informal references into a format that can be imported from clipboard into your Zotero. Zotero also readily accepts BibTeX-formatted references, though depending on their origin, you should be ready for some hand-editing, e.g. of the titles or author names.
Additional tasks
The tasks that the LingSIG should monitor and encourage in the context of Zotero are at least the following:
- examining the alignment between the output of the various Zotero-to-TEI export tools,
- creation or TEI-to-Zotero import tools.
Naturally, these are not the SIG's central goals, given its definition, but they demonstrate the degree of interrelatedness between our SIG and the SIG:Tools.
Source collections
Collections that may be useful as starting points for finding reference information are:
- Proceedings of the Language Resources and Evaluation Conferences (LREC),
- Proceedings of the Linguistic Annotation Workshops and ACL-related proceedings in general,
- Proceedings of the Balisage conference series,,
- http://en.scientificcommons.org ,
- http://www.xstandoff.net/references.html -- references concerning concurrent/stand-off markup.
