- Login, either [via your own institution](https://forum.clarin.eu/t/how-can-i-login-with-my-institutional-credentials/269) (default) or [with a CLARIN account](https://forum.clarin.eu/t/how-can-i-login-with-my-clarin-account/270) (if your institutional login is not available or does not work)

- Now you can request access.

You need to follow the next steps to request access, after logging in:

- click on **You may apply for access by filling in the form on this page.**

- this should guide you to a form titled “Corpuscle :: ICAME – COLT :: Application form”

- if the title of the corpus does not appear, you may need to disable your adblocker

- fill in the form and submit it

Please note that the processing of the access requests is a manual process that can take some time. If you need the corpus for a course, make the request timely.
