Description:As training in language documentation becomes part of the regular course offerings at many universities, there is a growing need to ensure that classroom discussions of documentary linguistic theory and best practices are balanced with the practical application of these skills and concepts. In this article, we consider Community Ser-vice Learning (CSL) in partnership with community-based organizations as one means of grounding language documentation training in realistic and collaborative practice. As a case study, we discuss one recent CSL project undertaken as a collaboration between the Yukon Native Language Centre and graduate students in a semester-long introductory course on language documentation at Carleton University. This collabo-ration focused on annotating recently digitized legacy language lessons for several Indigenous languages spoken in the Yukon Territory, Canada, using documentary linguistic software tools to create a text-searchable, multimedia database for future pedagogical applications. Drawing on the reflections of both community- and univer-sity-based collaborators, we discuss the design of this project, some of the challenges that needed to be addressed as it progressed, and offer several recommendations for future initiatives to integrate CSL into language documentation training.
