Data & official recordsfree
Finder for language corpora and tools held by European research centres. Use it to locate a resource, then import its documentation or texts.
This is a search tool for finding language corpora and tools held across European research centres, not a repository of texts itself. It's useful for locating a dataset you didn't know existed, but once you find it, you still go to the original institution's site to get the documentation or texts a notebook can import.
Import into Gemini Notebook
- 1Copy the link above (or a specific page from the site).
- 2In your notebook, click Add source → Website.
- 3Paste the link and confirm — several links can be pasted at once, one per line.
Gemini Notebook is a reading tool, not a spreadsheet engine — feed it the written reports and summary pages, not raw CSVs, and ask about what the documents say.
