Hvem bruger ISLEX og hvordan?

Resumé

ISLEX is a multilingual online dictionary with Icelandic as a source language and six Nordic target languages. It was opened on the web in 2011 and was from the start well received by its users. This paper discusses some aspects of the use and users of the dictionary. Some information is presented on measures that the logfiles of the database provide, e.g. the number of users at a given time and the proportional use of each target language. Moreover, the paper examines the main results of a user survey which was conducted in 2014. The survey gives valuable information on users’ opinions and their preferred methods of using the dictionary.
