We have had a request from an academic for the library to purchase and manage access to English-Corpora.org.
Can I ask if anyone has any experience of managing the purchase and access of corpora through library services?
I have to admit, this is the first time I have come across this type of resource.
I would be interested to know of other people's experiences (if any) have been, and whether there is anything we should be wary of.
This resource does seem to be able to manage authentication, there does seem to be a genuine demand for access across departments, and appears to be affordable if treated in isolation.
Any insights greatly appreciated.
