Avibase is an extensive database information system about all birds of the world, containing over 60 million records about 10,000 species and 22,000 subspecies of birds, including distribution information, taxonomy, synonyms in several languages and more. This site is managed by Denis Lepage and hosted by Bird Studies Canada, the Canadian copartner of Birdlife International. Avibase has been a work in progress since 1992 and I am now pleased to offer it as a service to the bird-watching and scientific community.
Iceland joined CLARIN ERIC on February 1st, 2020, after having been an observer since November 2018. The Ministry of Education, Science and Culture assigned The Árni Magnússon Institute for Icelandic Studies the role of leading partner in the Icelandic National Consortium and appointed Professor Emeritus Eiríkur Rögnvaldsson as National Coordinator, later replaced by Starkaður Barkarson, a project manager at The Árni Magnússon Institute. Most of the relevant institutions participate in the CLARIN-IS National Consortium. The Árni Magnússon Institute has already established a Metadata Providing Centre (CLARIN C-Centre) which hosts metadata for Icelandic language resources and makes them available through the Virtual Language Observatory. The aim is to establish a Service Providing Centre (CLARIN B-Centre) which will provide both service and access to resources and knowledge.
