 IJCL presents a wide range of views on the role of corpus linguistics
 in language research, lexicography and natural language processing
 (NLP).

 IJCL seeks to publish research that views language as a social
 phenomenon that can be investigated empirically on the basis of
 authentic spoken and written texts. Corpus linguistics specifies
 corpus design in respect to research interests, provides
 computational methods of extracting linguistic knowledge, and
 conceives tools to validate the accuracy of linguistic description.
 IJCL will discuss these aspects.

 IJCL aims to conciliate the expectations of language industry with
 the goals of academic research. Corpora are the basic resources in
 language engineering. It is the linguistic knowledge extracted from
 corpora that determines the perfomrance on any NLP application. IJCL
 is a forum to exchange and share expertise, visions as well as
 information on resources and tools.

 IJCL invites relevant contributions. For information on contributions
