The Creole Institute at Indiana University is recognized as the only center in the United States that is equipped to deal in depth with linguistic and related educational issues in Haiti. It specializes in research and training in the area of applied linguistics with a focus on French-based creoles. The Institute is also heavily involved in the study of French outside of France, especially varieties found in North America with special reference to Louisiana. The Director and Founder, Albert Valdman, is the author of two pioneering basic resources in these area published in France: Le créole: structure, statut et origine (1978) and Le français hors de France (1979). Since these publications, he has been at the forefront of creolistics and studies of North American varieties of French, developing course and reference materials through the Institute. The Institute’s most recent textbook, Ann Pale Kreyòl, is used widely across the United States in universities and other language institutions, and is available for purchase through this website, along with various audio materials and dictionaries.
