For those who are interested in applying for grants, I have a chapter on the topic of "Applying for an endangered languages research grant" (pp285 to 299) in Language Documentation and Description Volume 7 which goes to the printers next week.<div>
<br></div><div>Copies can be ordered from <a href="http://www.hrelp.org/publications/papers/volume7/index.html">http://www.hrelp.org/publications/papers/volume7/index.html</a> or if you are in Australia send me an email (<a href="mailto:pa2@soas.ac.uk">pa2@soas.ac.uk</a>) and express your interest in getting a copy --- if I get a bunch of orders I will be able to supply them for a discount price of $A 15 including postage, and payment will be able to be made to me in $A since I am now in Australia and can distribute locally until early June.</div>
