The TULQuest linguistic questionnaire archive
Résumé
This article describes the development and structure of an online interactive archive for linguistic questionnaires developed by the Fédération de Typologie et Universaux Linguistiques (CNRS) program on Questionnaires. The archive allows users to both retrieve and deposit material, with questionnaires categorized according to a taxo-nomy of features. Questionnaires, defined by our project as any methodological tool designed to collect linguistic data, and written with a capital to highlight this special use of the term, are accompanied by additional materials beyond basic metadata, ranging from a summary of usage protocol, development context, reviews and user tips, as well as the possibility of linking together questionnaires that have been adapted from an original, reflecting the dynamic nature of questionnaire use. The Fédération de Typologie et Universaux Linguistiques (TUL) is a CNRS-funded research infrastructure involving 11 CNRS research groups from around France. 1 It sponsors collaborative research projects on typology for 5-year periods. 2 One of the 1 The website that makes up the archive was built by Alexandre Roulois, LLF/CNRS. I take this opportunity to thank him for the intuitive work. I also thank two Masters student interns for their work on the archive: Marie Benzerrak (summer 2017) and Célia Richy (summer 2018). 2 CNRS leadership has unfortunately decided to replace TUL with a different research infrastructure, and TUL will not be renewed after 2018.
