Niko Partanen

I'm a linguist working primarily with the Uralic languages and language technology. I have worked with different archives and memory organizations, and serve as the librarian and archivist of the Finno-Ugrian Society. My research work has, besides linguistics, regularly addressed the use and digitization of archived materials.

I work as an information specialist in the National Library of Finland. My work is primarily related to the minority language support in our digital services, especially for the Sámi languages spoken in Finland.
