Facilities

Our students and staff have access to a wide range of technical facilities, online resources and unique collections at the John Rylands Library.

Researchers using equipment in the Language and Linguistics lab

At the University we have a Phonetics Laboratory with facilities for signal analysis, speech synthesis, laryngography and electropalatography, a large collection of specialist software and linguistic corpora, and, in The University of Manchester Library, one of the largest holdings in linguistics in the UK.

In addition, our researchers have digitalised some of the John Rylands Library’s special collection on Linguistics and Translation Studies, as well as creating an open access database.
