In spring 2022, a coordination group consisting of the directors of national research infrastructures (RIs) in the SSH, the national coordinators of international SSH RIs with Swiss participation (CESSDA, CLARIN, DARIAH, ESS, SHARE, GGP) and the representatives of the Swiss Academy for the SSH was created.
This working group has started a reflexion in order gather the SSH community and to defend its interests with respect to RIs. This is being done through a series of events and a position paper:

We are happy to share the new presentation video of the national Linguistic Research Infrastructure (LiRI).
LiRI, hosted at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, provides technical and practical support for research projects in the field of linguistics, language sciences and language-related disciplines at the University of Zurich and beyond.
LiRI services fall into three main categories:
* Data acquisition: The LiRI lab has equipment and software for generating and collecting linguistic research data. The facilities can be used by scientists or other users interested in natural language data (i.e. audiovisual, textual and speech data), and by language researchers working on experimental data (e.g. eye-tracking, electroencephalographic, behavioral).
* Data management: LiRI can set up and manage customized virtual machine (VM) servers for the purposes of processing, analysis, storage and backup of linguistic research data. These VM servers are part of the ScienceCloud environment of the University of Zurich and are accessible both within the UZH network and world wide. From summer 2022 onwards, publication-ready data for long-term archiving can be directly ingested into the SWISSUBase infrastructure, a Swiss national center for research data.
* Collaboration and support:The Linguistic Research Infrastructure offers technical and methodological assistance to researchers on how best to collect, process and analyze the linguistic data they require. A project's infrastructure needs can be discussed in an initial, free of charge consultation. Depending on the complexity of the project, support could range from occasional guidance to LiRI managing all data acquisition and processing. LiRI staff members can also advise on project budgets and data management plans.

The upcoming CLARIN cafรฉ, taking place on 1 Dec, 14:00 - 16:00 CEST on Zoom, will focus on Guidelines for Integrating CLARIN into Teaching. Lessons learnt from the UPSKILLS project
This event will focus on the current practices for using CLARIN resources in teaching and the creation of best-practice guidelines for lecturers. Although primarily intended for language and linguistics-related disciplines, these guidelines can also be extended and adapted to suit other disciplines.
The UPSKILLS European project is an Erasmus+ strategic partnership for higher education that seeks to identify and tackle the gaps and mismatches in skills for linguistics and language students through the development of a new curriculum component and supporting materials to be embedded in existing programmes of study.
Three Swiss research institutions are members of the UPSKILLS project: the University of Zurich, the University of Geneva and the IDIAP Research Institute.

LiRI- Linguistic Research Infrastructure - is a technology platform hosted by the University of Zรผrich.
It consists of various laboratory facilities for linguistic research (and related research fields) and technical infrastructure for the analysis of language and speech.
It serves as a national platform for linguistics data storage/processing/science, uniting as many linguistic data resource types as possible in one data center. Its services are available to all researchers working with language data. If you need support from the LiRI consultats, please check here their services: LiRI services.
LiRI entertains tight relations with CLARIN-CH. LiRI and the Zurich Center for Linguistics constitute the UZH center of the CLARIN-CH national network.
LiRI is organising an Opening event on September 24, 2021**. You are most welcome to participate!
We will be there with a poster on CLARIN-CH. We are looking forward to meeting you and to answer to any questions about CLARIN-CH.
