LDC catalog records missing

[dietuyt]

The OAI endpoint (or static record) that we used to harvest does not work anymore

​http://projects.ldc.upenn.edu/OLAC/ldc_catalog.xml

just sent them a mail:

Dear LDC,

One of the activities from our language resource-based research infrastructure CLARIN (http://www.clarin.eu/) is providing metadata about language resources and tools via the Virtual Language Observatory (http://www.clarin.eu/vlo/). Of course having the metadata for the LDC catalog in there is an important aspect. We used to harvest OLAC records via:

http://projects.ldc.upenn.edu/OLAC/ldc_catalog.xml

but this now redirects to:

https://www.ldc.upenn.edu/collaborations/current-projects

Could you please let us know if this change has been made on purpose? Or if we should use another address? All help on this issue is warmly welcomed.

Best regards,

[dietuyt]

Hi Dieter,

Thank you for your email. Recently, we revamped our website so many of
the links have changed. The new url for our catalog metadata is:

​http://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/olac/ldc_catalog.xml

Best,

Ilya
