Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

The LINGUIST List is proud of the resources we make available to our users- 
from those newly interested in linguistics to professional linguists. Of 
all of these, the Jobs area is one of our most popular resources and we 
need your help to keep this service going. Please donate at: 

https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

With nearly 10,500 jobs posted since 1990, we are the premier source for 
academic and professional positions in linguistics. The first year, we 
posted 4 jobs, and thanks to your support, we posted over 700 in 2011. 
Please help us continue to provide this service by donating here: 
(even $5 helps!) 

https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Our Jobs area has evolved with the field of linguistics; our job listings 
include a wide variety of positions that encompass diverse areas of 
research, both commercial and academic. We make these job postings 
available for free in a number of ways. Readers can access job 
announcements through our website 
(http://linguistlist.org/jobs/browse-job-current-rs-1.html), subscribe to 
our listserv or RSS (http://linguistlist.org/LL/subs-index.cfm) or follow 
us on Twitter (http://twitter.com/linguistlistjob).

To better serve job seekers, we have developed a browseable web interface 
that allows users to view the most recent posted jobs and to sort this 
listing by employer name, location, rank/title of the position, linguistic 
specialty, or application deadline. This allows users to quickly access and 
view the information they are looking for. Jobs seekers can also search for 
jobs with specific criteria using our search function. Here they can select 
job rank, location, linguistics subfield, and/or language to narrow their 
results, allowing them to see only the jobs matching their description. Our 
jobs pages are some of the most frequently visited on the vast LINGUIST 
List site, with over 21,000 unique page views in just one week.

Many of you have may have used our service to post or find a job, and many 
more of you will use this service in the coming year. Please donate to our 
Fund Drive to help us continue posting these jobs! Any amount will help, so 
whether you can give $5 or $50, please visit

Thank you for your support,

Christy Bird
LINGUIST List Jobs Editor

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax
return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
