http://tiny.cc/OEDAcademicSolutions The OED is a powerful online linguistic resource, providing features, tools, and language data which are essential for academic research and teaching. However, the extent of the OED capabilities is not always explored to its full potential.
Join Katherine Martin, Head of Product for Oxford Languages, Emily Hoyland, Product Manager, Dr Danica Salazar, World English Editor, and Ms Katherine Staples, Regional Training & Implementation Manager for a live interactive online session where they will provide an overview of all the OED can offer, particularly now that lecturers and libraries are facing an increasing need to transition to digital resources as a result of the pressures brought about by the Covid-19 crisis.
This session will cover:
- More than a dictionary: an overview of the OED functionality and content, including the available resources related to recent language developments, and worldwide varieties of English
- What the OED adds to a researcher’s journey: available and proposed tools enabling access to the OED as a powerful database for academics
- Support available to subscribers: what support, training, and resources are available to subscribers during this need for better digital resources
- Q&A time: bring your questions to the panellists, or send them in advance to oed.uk
