Do you want your lexicon to be accessible in Karp? We are open to new
collaborations, especially if the data is open. Contact us at
sb-karp@svenska.gu.se.

Before you start, please consider the following:


### Adding an *existing* resource to Karp:
  * Make sure that the document is be well-formed and preferably in (valid!) JSON or LMF.
  * Which fields should be visible in the graphical user interface, what should they be called...?
  * Do some fields have values chosen from a closed set?
  * Do you want the resource to be exported? In what format?
  * If possible, provide us with a data structure specification (see below).


### Creating a *new* resource that will be added to Karp
  * If possible choose JSON or LMF format. Make sure the data is well-formed.
  * Which fields should be visible / searchable in the graphical user interface, what should they be called?

### Getting a *copy* of an *existing* lexicon (e.g. create a new lexicon which is identical to SweFN)
  * Should some fields be removed?
  * Are there any additional fields?
  * Should there be any existing example entries?

### General information and things to consider
  * Is the lexicon, or any part of it, copyright protected?
  * Who is responsible for the lexicon? Who is responsible for adding new users to the system?
  * Should the lexicon be editable?
  * Should the lexicon be hidden from non-authorized users?
  * Is there any meta data or user info we should include on the Karp page?
  * How much support from Språkbanken will be needed once the lexicon is available in Karp?
  * Should there be any methodological support in the interface (e.g. auto completion)?
  * Are there any references or links between entries? Are there clickable values? What behaviour is to be expected?
  * Are there any references or links to other lexicons?
  * Are there any references to Korp?
  * Will there be any pictures or maps in the resource? Are there any specific requirements for the statistics page?
