AILLA proudly announces its newest collection, the Isthmus Zapotec Collection of Randi Moore. This collection of audio and video recordings made between 2012-2015 in three locations in southern Mexico's Isthmus of Tehuantepec: Juchitán de Zaragoza, La Ventosa, and Santa María Xadani. The materials are recordings made in the course of Dr. Moore's dissertation research on Isthmus Zapotec spatial language and cognition.
AILLA will close for the winter break at the end of the day on Friday, December 22, 2018, and will re-open on Wednesday, January 2, 2019. During this time, we will continue to approve account requests once per day, but we will not respond to email. We hope that you have a relaxing winter break and a happy new year.
The AILLA website will be unavailable on Wednesday, 7 November 2018 from approximately 09:00 to 12:00 CST (15:00 to 18:00 UTC). We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
With great pleasure, we announce the opening of the Terrence Kaufman Collections at AILLA. In 2012 the Archive of the Indigenous Languages of Latin America (AILLA) was awarded the NSF grant BCS-1157867 "Archiving the Terrence Kaufman Collection," and the archive staff began the work of organizing, digitizing, ingesting and curating the vast assemblage of American indigenous language materials in the possession of Terrence Kaufman.
The deadline to submit a request to AILLA for a support letter for the NSF DEL grant is now Thursday, November 1, 2018. This revision is due to the NSF DEL submission deadline extension.
The deadline to request a support letter for any other grant or purpose due in September or October is still Wednesday, August 29, 2018.
