Language

However, registries, or parts of registries, written in either Greenlandic or Faroese can be found.

Data responsibility

The contributor possessing the material and providing the information in the Greenland Registry is responsible for said information.

The Greenland Registry is in Danish, since most of the archival material is written in Danish. On occasion, news will be translated into Greenlandic, but for now the secretary is unfortunately not able to communicate in Greenlandic.
