Once you've conducted research you're especially proud of, you may wish to
share it with the rest of the linguistics community. LINGUIST makes it easy to
find a venue that is specific to your interests, and to submit your work for
review! All of your published work can then be attributed to your name on our
site.

To begin, you may wish to create a listing for yourself in our People Area.
Here you can list your affiliations, degrees, areas of interest/research, and
publications.
http://linguistlist.org/people/

Once your People entry is submitted, explore the services below to help you
develop as a professional.

Conferences Area: Here you can browse upcoming conferences for presenting your
research and interacting with linguists who share your interests:

Academic Paper: http://linguistlist.org/pubs/papers/index.cfm

reviews are often the first reviews to be distributed to the linguistics
community.

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!
