Dear colleagues,

the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of
Tuebingen, Germany, and Project B1 of SFB 441 are pleased to announce the
first release of the ONLINE QUERYABLE TUEBINGEN RUSSIAN CORPORA. The query
interface, as well as information about the corpus and the corpus project
can be accessed on the WWW at URL:

http://www.sfb441.uni-tuebingen.de/b1/korpora.html

As a start, the Tuebingen Russian Corpora contain the Uppsala Corpus of
modern Russian texts. It provides a CGI interface to the corpus files,
which allows keyword searching with whole words and regular expressions in
PERL. The interface displays the query results with cyrillic encoding
(KOI8-R or Windows Codepage 1251) or latin transliteration, provides
frequency counts and, if selected, contextual output and exact
bibliographic sources.

In the future, we plan to provide annotated corpora and add to the
Tuebingen Russian Corpora a collection of text types as complete and
representative as possible, which will be available free of charge for
research purposes. Contributions are welcome!
