The modernization of society and changing norms are reflected in linguistic developments. This leads to an enlargement of vocabulary as well as to the emergence of new ways of linguistic acting. In grammar, in addition to longer-term developments, the current changes in the media situation play an important role.

In this paper, some tendencies in contemporary German lexicography are described with an emphasis on Internet dictionaries. Several online dictionaries of German from publishing houses or published by academic institutions are introduced representing a wide range of possible presentations of lexico-graphic information on the Internet. The examples also illustrate how modem dictionaries profit from a corpus-based approach, how information on headwords can be presented in an innovative way and how the contact with the dictionary user can be established. Research into dictionary usage is also ex-amined briefly. A short outlook on the possible future of German lexicography rounds off the survey given here.
