Dear Fellow Linguists,

Today we are rolling out our first Publisher Prize lottery! In our lottery for
this coming week, we are showcasing some pretty cool bundle of prizes from our
Supporting Publishers. This is how the lottery is going to work: for every $10
that you donate, your name is entered to win one of these very linguistic-y
prizes. So, if you donate $50, your name will be entered 5 times, and that
increases your chances of winning that much more. Even if you can only donate
$20 or $30, you still have a good chance of winning!

Here is the list of the prizes we're giving away in our first prize bundle: 

>From Brill: 2 one-year journal subscriptions to the journal Cognitive
Semantics (you can read more about the journal here: http://goo.gl/FLaZqC).
This one is for the cognitive linguists and the semanticists among you.

>From Cambridge University Press: The Cambridge Handbook of Endangered
Languages (http://goo.gl/GrqenL),edited by Peter K. Austin and Julia
Sallabank. If you are interested in documenting endangered languages and the
underlying causes of language endangerment, this will be the book for you.

>From De Gruyter Mouton: an e-book of Vowel-Shifting in the English Language by
Kamil Kazmierski. This book would be ideal for those among you interested in
Optimality Theory and evolutionary phonology. Read more about the book here:
http://goo.gl/DvXsGh

>From Edinburgh University Press: For the morphologists and semanticists out
there! The Semantics of Word Formation and Lexicalization, by Pius ten Hacken
and Claire Thomas, is ideal if you are interested at looking at word formation
from various theoretical frameworks. Read the book's full abstract here:

>From Elsevier: 1 personal one-year electronic subscription to an Elsevier
linguistics journal of the winner’s choice. You can see the complete list of
their linguistic journals here: https://goo.gl/NaswSa. They have a diverse
range of journals, from general linguistics, language education,
neurolinguistics, pragmatics and much more!

>From John Benjamins: 1 journal subscription of the winner's choice from any of
their 70+ journals. See the full listing of their journals here:
http://goo.gl/lvCacl. Interested in Syntax? Sociolinguistics? Historical
Linguistics? Whatever your chosen discipline, John Benjamins has a journal for
you.

>From the University of Nebraska Press: 2 one-year subscriptions to the online
version of Anthropological Linguistics. Read more about the journal here:
http://goo.gl/shD9Z7 This is a great resource not only for the anthropological
linguists among us, but also if your research interests lie in the fields of
historical linguistics, corpus linguistics, discourse, or many other fields!

If you donate between now until next Friday April 8 at 5 pm, your name will be
entered to win one of these fantastic prizes. You can donate by following the

Keep an eye out for more competitions and publisher raffles as our Fund Drive
progresses. If you miss this week's lottery, there will be many more great
prizes from our supporting publishers in the coming month, so stay tuned to
our social media pages to hear about more prizes that you can win.

Also, if you cannot donate monetarily, you can donate your time by helping
spread the word about our Fund Drive. You can do so by liking, sharing, and
retweeting on social media, as well as telling others in your department and
your local linguistic community the old-fashioned way by word of mouth!

In addition to the one-time donations to our Fund Drive, you can also become a
recurring donor and support LINGUIST List on a long-term basis.  Find out how

Thanks and good luck!
 
Linguistically yours, 
The LINGUIST List Crew

This year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $79,000. This money 
will go to help keep the List running by supporting all of our 
Student Editors for the coming year.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and 
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation, 
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal 
Tax number is 45-4211155. 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 eLinguistics 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!
