Since its foundation in 1959 by Randolph Quirk, the Survey of English Usage has provided researchers and teachers with a corpus of spoken, manuscript, and printed Standard British English, and with facilities for conducting elicitation tests to gather information about usage that might otherwise remain inaccessible. In this way it has sought to inform linguistic introspection with observational evidence and linguistic experimentation. Despite the vicissitudes of linguistic theory, the Survey has continued its work in the broad-minded spirit of its founder, and has already provided a basis for many insights of pedagogical as well as theoretical significance. New uses have been found for the Survey's resources in recent years, and the spoken part of the Survey corpus is being made more widely available in book form and on computer tape through the collaborative efforts of people in Britain, sweden, and Norway.
