Abstract

The Dictionary of Newfoundland English is one of the most internationally acclaimed and best-known publications to emerge from the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Under the management of Memorial University’s English Language Research Centre, the DNE Word-file Digitization Project, started in 2005, has digitized and will verify 80,000 to 90,000 word-files that went into the creation of DNE and aims to make the data available to interested researchers. Digitization will also help preserve DNE ’s primary and secondary source records. This report describes the collection, examines the digitization process, the methodology behind the process, and next steps for this one-of-a-kind collection.
