Access to repository resources is determined by the depositor. Users must agree to the End User License Agreement of the depositor before gaining access to the resource. The repository offers two types of access to users, which are described below.  Access to all metadata is publicly available. 

Metadata Access

The metadata is publicly accessible via the CLARIN Virtual Language Observatory (VLO) which provides a search engine for browsing detailed descriptions of resources available within CLARIN, including those in the Tübingen repository. Access to the resources can also be gained by those authorized to do so, as explained below.

Resource Access

Access to a resource is determined by the depositor and enforced by the repository backend.  Access by users to a given resource can take the following forms:

Public

Public resources are made available to the general public.

Closed

Closed resources are accessible by the depositor and archivists only. These may be resources which will become more accessible in the future.
