Building OLAC Services
Building OLAC is a community-wide effort involving people in many
countries. The services running on the OLAC site have been developed
by Steven Bird, Gary Simons, Haejoong Lee, Éva Bánik,
Alan Lee, Baden Hughes, Amol Kamat, David Ormiston-Smith and Debbie Chang.
Work on the core infrastructure is funded by US National Science
Foundation grants to the University of Pennsylvania, CMU and
Wayne State University:
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the
Digital Library Research Group
at Old Dominion University and the
Library Without
Walls team of the Los Alamos National Laboratories.
The OLAC website is hosted at the Linguistic
