Language documentation

Berez-Kroeker's work has focused on the documentation and preservation of endangered languages. She has created language documentation materials for the Athabascan languages Ahtna and Dena'ina. She completed her Ph.D. at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2011 with a dissertation titled "Discourse, Landscape, and Directional Reference in Ahtna."[3] Her work on Ahtna includes using Geographic information system to investigate the lexicalization of directionals, a subcategory of deixis, in language.[4][5]

Her recent documentary work in Papua New Guinea includes documentation of Kuman as well as a video documentary of Kere, a language.[6]

She is the editor of books on language change,[7] linguistic fieldwork,[8] and a lexicon of Dena'ina.[9]

Linguistic data

Berez-Kroeker has given talks and workshops on reproducibility in the field of linguistics, including data sharing and citation.[10][11] She currently works to create infrastructure that promotes the long-term sustainability and interoperability of data. She is a principal investigator for a National Science Foundation grant studying the practices of data citation and attribution of data in the field of linguistics, including the creation and dissemination of resources on data use and sharing.[12]

In particular, the society recognized her for the "technological sophistication to her work, especially in the areas of language archiving, data processing, and visualization."[15]
