_DESCRIPTION = """\
The EUR-Lex-Sum dataset is a multilingual resource intended for text summarization in the legal domain.
It is based on human-written summaries of legal acts issued by the European Union.
It distinguishes itself by introducing a smaller set of high-quality human-written samples,
each of which have much longer references (and summaries!) than comparable datasets.
Additionally, the underlying legal acts provide a challenging domain-specific application to legal texts,
which are so far underrepresented in non-English languages.
For each legal act, the sample can be available in up to 24 languages
(the officially recognized languages in the European Union);
the validation and test samples consist entirely of samples available in all languages,
and are aligned across all languages at the paragraph level.
