How to use this manual

This manual 1 aims to help you explore and/or use the CLARIN:EL infrastructure to make your resources available to the Humanities and Social Sciences community (and beyond). It is not meant to be read in sequence (although it can be) but to help you find specific information depending on your needs. There are chapters with general information on basic concepts; others describing the process 2 through which a resource comes to life and chapters which will specifically help you:

• to browse and search through the central inventory so as to find resources to download and process,

• to create resources via the metadata editor 3 or by uploading XML files, and

• to perform actions on resources depending on your role.

If you are looking for something specific, please, use the search box on the top left side of the navigation bar, below the CLARIN:EL logo.
