The Corpus Linguistics Fest (CLiF) at Indiana University will be a week-long effort (June 6-10) to provide a space for linguists, psycholinguists, computational linguists, and anyone else wishing to explore the use of corpus data and to understand the methodologies and practices of Corpus Linguistics. In addition to the presentations on Friday, participants will have chances to develop skills in theoretical and practical sessions Monday-Thursday through courses on:

- Statistical methods for corpora (using R) (Amir Zeldes)
- Tools for annotating and searching corpora (Stefanie Dipper)
- Learner corpora and Second Language Acquisition research (Anke Lüdeling)

For the final day of the fest, the organizers seek papers representing in-progress or completed work from all areas of corpus linguistics. Young researcher and student submissions are especially welcome.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

- Corpus linguistic studies of linguistic phenomena
- Methodological issues in using corpora in linguistics
- The interface between corpus linguistics and linguistic theory
- Corpus annotation (morpho-syntactic, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic, etc.)
- Automatic annotation
- Applications of corpora in the humanities
- Using corpora for language learning/teaching
- The use of corpora in discourse analysis and computer-mediated communication
