Call for Papers:

Indigenous Lexicography: A Special Issue of Dictionaries - Journal of
the Dictionary Society of North America

This special issue centers the work of Indigenous language champions
and scholars, particularly anthropologists and linguists, who are
engaged in active collaborations on dictionary projects for
communities as both forms of language documentation and as essential
tools in language revitalization.

Coinciding with the beginning of the United Nations International
Decade of Indigenous Languages 2022-2032, the special issue provides a
platform to highlight the unique role of dictionaries in Indigenous
communities and the inspiring work in which Indigenous lexicographers
and their partners are engaged.

In this special issue, we highlight the specific needs and strategic
goals that speakers of Indigenous languages have for their dictionary
projects and reflect on the challenges that communities face in
realizing these goals. All the projects and partnerships in this
special issue are examples of what we call ‘Relational Lexicography’,
a shift towards dictionaries that are created by and with speakers and
learners of under-resourced languages themselves, which recognize the
relationships between speakers, between dialects, and also the
relationships that exist between community language workers and
academics.

We invite submissions that contribute to and center community
perspectives in dictionary-making. While we hope for a range of
submissions, we anticipate that proposals will likely extend beyond
these themes:
- technologies for dictionary making;
- incorporating dialects and speaker variation into dictionaries;
- challenges and benefits of multimedia dictionaries;
- open-access dictionaries;
- challenges and benefits of online versus print dictionaries;
- historic or legacy format dictionaries and dictionary-making;
- ways to include speakers’ relationships in dictionary-making;
- examples of community/academic collaborations in dictionary-making;
- the process and development of dictionary projects;
- new word creation and inclusion in dictionaries;
- the inclusion of archaic words and traditional cultural content in
dictionaries;
- reviews of dictionary projects (complete or in development)

Dictionaries: The Journal of the Dictionary Society of North America
is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that publishes articles on all
aspects of lexicography, as well as from areas of linguistic inquiry
that relate to lexicography, and from the study of reference works in
general as they bear on dictionary-making.

lexicography website.
Please send your proposal to the co-guest-editors, Mark Turin
<mark.turin at ubc.ca> & Christine Schreyer <christine.schreyer at ubc.ca>.

Proposal submission deadline: May 1, 2023
Full paper hard deadline: August 15, 2023 for a December 2023
publication
(Volume 44, Issue 2)

Paper submissions that miss the August deadline will be considered,

Dictionaries. In order to see this special issue into production in
