OREL - Online Resources for Endangered Languages - is a library of nearly 400 annotated and categorised links to web resources for those
revitalising or documenting endangered languages. We aim to link to a wide variety of resources helping with all aspects of language revitalisation
and documentation, from technical and organisational issues, to the ethics and law of language diversity, to the practicalities of
funding the process. We also seek to link to educational resources that explain the issues at stake in language endangerment, or provide
particularly illustrative examples of endangerment, documentation, or revitalisation. OREL is also available in Arabic.
OREL was developed and is maintained by Lameen Souag. It was initiated and is sponsored by ELAR, the Endangered Languages Archive.
