Open corpus of Veps and Karelian languages (abbr. VepKar) contains dictionaries and corpora of Finnic languages of Karelia peoples.

VepKar project is a continuation of work done in Veps language corpus. Karelian language corpus include three varieties which can be considered as dialects or separate languages: Karelian Proper, Livvi-Karelian and Ludic Karelian, all of which have newly created writing tradition (“младописьменный”, mladopis'mennyy type of languages).

The corpus is a search information system, including a set of texts written in some language in a digital form. The corpus is a more than a simple set of texts, the corpus should provide a search possibilities within these texts and the possibility to add (bind) some information to these texts. A search possibilities of the corpus are based on the electronic dictionary (as part of the corpus) connected with the texts of the corpus.
