DBNL Corpus Now Available in I-Analyzer
The CDH Research Software Lab has now added the Digital Library for Dutch Literature (Digitale Bibliotheek voor de Nederlandse Letteren, DBNL, in Dutch) to the online text and data mining tool I-Analyzer.
DBNL is a digital collection of texts from Dutch literature, linguistics, and cultural history, from the year 1200 to 1890. Millions of visitors from all over the world consult the digital collections each year. DBNL is the result of a collaborative effort between the Taalunie, the Vlaamse Erfgoedbibliotheken, and the Dutch Royal Library (KB). By adding the publicly available portion of the DBNL dataset to I-Analyzer, researchers can now efficiently explore these texts.
