The LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ repository is the largest and most comprehensive repository for the humanities in the Czech Republic. It was originally established for language data but has gradually expanded to cover other humanities disciplines and currently serves a consortium of fifteen partner institutions. As part of the Open Science II project, the repository will be further developed through the creation of a dedicated collection for data from the Czech National Corpus research infrastructure. This will expand the user community to include corpus linguists and bring important disciplinary datasets into the repository, such as the InterCorp corpus, updated versions of linguistic datasets and a digital edition of the Wycliffe Bible. A distinctive element of this development is the creation of a metadata schema for remote services. This addresses, among other things, the needs of language corpora that, for copyright reasons, often cannot make their source full texts available outside their own servers. The LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ repository will also be expanded with a range of curated and standardised datasets containing linguistic content.

The repository, developed at the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University as a local node of the LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ infrastructure, will undergo a major upgrade through integration with the National Repository Platform, opening it to researchers beyond its home institution. Its content will be expanded with three datasets of significant value for humanities research: the Dictionary of Czech Philosophers, the Diatheca collection of rare photographic documentation, and a database of contemporary private correspondence from the 20th and 21st centuries. An international metadata standard for cultural and historical data will be applied to selected datasets, significantly strengthening their interoperability and their potential for integration into broader international research contexts.

ArchaeoVault is a national disciplinary repository for non-field archaeological data – data generated through laboratory or digital processing of archaeological finds, including geospatial data, laboratory analysis results, anthropological data, 3D models, database outputs and synthetic datasets. It does not cover primary field records, which are managed by the Archaeological Map of the Czech Republic (AMČR). Its aim is to securely store, provide access to and interlink this type of data related to Czech archaeology – from Czech research conducted in the Czech Republic, through international research carried out in the country, to projects involving Czech researchers abroad. The repository is also open to other relevant contributions from abroad. ArchaeoVault remains connected to AMČR through persistent identifiers and shared vocabularies. Data formats and metadata profiles have been developed in cooperation with disciplinary experts, and the repository provides data curation services while, where appropriate, directing users to specialised external repositories.

This entirely new repository is being developed within the Czech Literary Bibliography research infrastructure and focuses on making bibliographic data available as a specific type of research data in the humanities. It will include the conversion of extensive analogue bibliographic and biographical resources – including card catalogues and printed bibliographies – into a standardised structured format. Artificial intelligence tools will also be used to support automated text recognition during this process. In the future, the repository will also be open to other bibliographic institutions. Its international reach will be strengthened through the inclusion of data from the European Literary Bibliography project, jointly developed by the Czech and Polish Literary Bibliographies.
