Abstract

This chapter describes the genesis of CLARIN, from the point of departure in the growing understanding of language resources as important building blocks, through the European political agreement that research infrastructures are essential for the European Research Area, and finally focussing on the actual creation of CLARIN as a language research infrastructure, serving communities that deal with language data.
