PolyglotDB is a Python package for storing and querying large speech corpora. It constructs various kinds of database, and has a consistent Python API for interacting with the various underlying databases. The online documentation is available at http://polyglotdb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

This package is intended for developers and those experienced with scripting in Python. If you would like to use a graphical interface for querying and interacting with PolyglotDB databases, please see Speech Corpus Tools (http://speech-corpus-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). Speech Corpus Tools is currently depreciated and undergoing significant update to match recent development of PolyglotDB.
