Title: New Falko German Learner Corpus Release
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/23/23-3863.html The error-annotated German learner corpus Falko has released a new subcorpus: FalkoEssayL2WHIGv2.0 including 195 argumentative essays by advanced learners of German (117,189 tokens). For each text two full-text target hypotheses (a minimal morphosyntactic normalization and an extended semantic-pragmatic version) have been manually annotated. Each representation has been POS-tagged and lemmatized (Treetagger & rfTagger). rfTagger morphological annotation has been integrated as well. On this basis, tags indicating differences between the learner text and its POS and lemma annotations and the respective target hypotheses (POS & lemma) have been added. The corpus is freely available under the following link: http://korpling.german.hu-berlin.de/falko-suche The annotation guidelines can be found here: http://www.linguistik.hu-berlin.de/institut/professuren/korpuslinguistik/forschung/falko/Falko-Handbuchv2.0.pdf

Title: Classical Works Knowledge Base
Body: From http://apaclassics.org/index.php/apa_blog/apa_blog_entry/classical_works_knowledge_base The Classical Works Knowledge Base (CWKB) is a new service of the American Philological Association developed under the direction of Eric Rebillard (Cornell University). The project was supported by a grant made to the American Philological Association (APA) in 2010 by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. CWKB contain information for the retrieval of citations from ancient Greek and Latin texts--from Homer (8 c. BC) to Bede (mid 8 c. AD)-- in the following online resources: Brepols Library of Latin Texts, Perseus Library, PHI Latin Texts, Thesaurus Linguae Graecae. CWKB adopts an OpenURL approach. It is both a relational database and a link resolver software. The relational database stores metadata about authors and works; the link resolver parses the OpenURLs, makes a lookup in the relational database, and returns links to digital libraries of Greek and Latin literatures. For more information, go to this website: http://cwkb.org
