Iztok Kosem has a PhD in Corpus Linguistics, obtained at Aston University in Birmingham, UK. His main interest is the production of user-friendly and modern language resources (both monolingual and bilingual) for speakers of Slovene. In his opinion, the future of dictionaries is in online format, whose lexicographic potential is yet to be fully exploited. He is also interested in building and use of (pedagogical) corpora in language teaching and learning.
In October 2013 he was elected Vice-Chair of ENeL (European Network of Electronic Lexicography, funded by COST. He is a member of the EURALEX 2014 scientific committee. He was the head of organization committees and a member of scientific committees of eLex 2011 and eLex 2013 conferences. In August 2013 he was among 50 invited experts at the OED symposium. He is a co-author of the Proposal for a new dictionary of contemporary Slovene.
