Lex – Danmarks Nationalleksikon

Lex – Danmarks Nationalleksikon is Denmark’s freely accessible, searchable national encyclopedia, with Danish-language factual content written by researchers and other professionals. Its collection contains more than 245,000 articles, including Den Store Danske, Trap Danmark, and other specialist reference works. Editors continually add material and revise existing articles. Trap Danmark covers subjects including geography, biology, archaeology, history, culture, architecture, and social and business life; its digital edition includes place descriptions, maps, images, and illustrations from public cultural and geographic databases. Lex provides definitions from Den Danske Ordbog within its articles. Readers can comment, suggest edits or new articles, and contribute images, though editors must approve proposals. Lex says articles may contain errors or omissions and invites correction suggestions. Institutions, public authorities, and businesses can license content through Tekst & Node. Text and data mining, including AI training, requires individual permission. Lex serves public education, including schools, universities, educational institutions, and libraries.
