>>     self-nominations, for the position of Editor of Linguistic
>>     Typology, beginning January 2018 <tel:2018>. The Editor is
>>     probably the most important officer in the ALT. They organize the
>>     work of the Editorial Board, oversee the work of the editorial
>>     assistant, make final decisions about acceptance or
>>     non-acceptance of papers, set journal policy (consulting with the
>>     ALT Executive Committee as necessary), and work closely with the
>>     publisher to maintain the high quality of the journal. Support
>>     for editorial work is generally made available through the
>>     journal publisher, de Gruyter Mouton.
>>
>>     Candidates should be established scholars with good publication
>>     records, relevant editorial experience (such as service on one or
>>     more editorial boards), and/or other relevant organizational
>>     experience, and a history of prompt and efficient handling of
>>     email and other communications.
>>
>>     Nominees and applicants can be individuals or pairs or teams of
>>     co-editors. The nomination or application should include a brief
>>     CV (about 2-3 pages), or link to a website if it provides the
>>     relevant information, and a brief cover letter mentioning the
>>     individual's qualifications (for both self-nominations and
>>     regular nominations).
>>
>>     In view of the importance of the Editor position, the President
>>     has appointed a special Editor Search Committee led by the Chair
>>     of the Nominating Committee (Claire Bowern).
>>
>>     The Search Committee will also make nominations of their own. In
>>     addition, all members of ALT are urged to think of qualified
>>     people and urge them to apply.
>>
>>     Please send nominations, applications, and inquiries to the
>>     Editorial Search Committee at this email account:
>>     lt.editor2 at gmail.com <mailto:lt.editor2 at gmail.com>. The deadline
>>     is May 10, 2017 <tel:2017>.
