The large research infrastructure LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ represents the Czech national node (distributed among 17 participating partners from 15 institutions) of the pan-European research infrastructures CLARIN-ERIC (Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure), DARIAH-ERIC (Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities) and EHRI-ERIC (European Holocaust Research Infrastructure, in the process of being prepared). LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ collects, processes, annotates (manually and automatically) and stores linguistic, multimedia and other data related to the Czech language environment, including from a historical perspective.

The main objective of the infrastructure is to make digitized data resources in these disciplines available to the broad scientific community, including the software services necessary for the efficient use of these resources, in an open mode. The infrastructure program also includes educational activities.
