Call for papers: SSILA Annual Meeting (Boston, Jan. 8-11 2004)

SSILA's 2003-04 Annual Meeting will be held in conjunction with the 78th 
Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America, from Thursday January 
8 through Sunday January 11, 2004.  In addition to SSILA, the LSA meeting 
will also host the annual meetings of the American Dialect Society, the 
North American Association for the History of the Language Sciences 
(NAAHoLS), and the Society for Pidgin and Creole Linguistics. SSILA 
registrants will be welcome to attend the sessions of any of these groups, 
and vice versa.

The meeting will be held at the Sheraton Boston Hotel (39 Dalton St.), 
where a block of rooms has been reserved for meeting participants.
A Reservation Request Form will be mailed to members with the July 
Newsletter.  Reservation information can also be found in the June
2003 LSA Bulletin and at the LSA website (www.lsadc.org).

Submission of papers
--------------------
Proposals for papers are invited from all members of SSILA in good standing 
(i.e., whose dues are paid through 2003).  Proposals from
non-members or from members in arrears will be reviewed only if accompanied 
by a membership application and/or 2003 dues ($16).
Papers may be co-authored with non-members, but the senior author (and the 
author delivering the paper, if different from the senior
author) must be a member of SSILA.

Submissions must include an abstract of up to 250 words (150 or fewer will 
often suffice) for publication in the LSA Meeting Handbook.  If
the paper is to be delivered in Spanish, the abstract should be in Spanish 
but accompanied by an English translation.  Submission by
e-mail is encouraged, but if your abstract employs special fonts you should 
submit a hard copy of your abstract by mail.

In addition to the abstract, proposals must include:

   * Names of author(s) (if joint authorship, list the senior author
      first and also indicate who will deliver the paper)
   * Affiliation(s) (for the Meeting Handbook)
   * Mailing address (in Fall 2003)
   * Telephone/fax numbers
   * E-mail address
   * Exact title of paper
   * Three key words (identifying the subject of the paper)

All proposals must reach SSILA no later than Friday September 5, 2003.
Proposals for SSILA papers must not be sent to the LSA.  SSILA organizes 
its sessions separately from LSA sessions.  Mail (or e-mail)
all materials to:

                 2003 Program Committee, SSILA
                 P.O. Box 555
                 Arcata, California 95518-0555, USA
                 ssila at ssila.org

Papers are normally scheduled in 20-minute time slots (15 minutes for 
presentation, 5 minutes for discussion).  Papers may be delivered in either 
English or Spanish.

All meeting rooms will be equipped with microphones, an overhead projector, 
and a screen.  Any additional equipment must be provided
by the participant, in particular LCD projectors for PowerPoint presentations.

Preregistration
---------------
In order to be included on the SSILA program, participants must preregister 
for the meeting.  This need not be done at the time the
paper is submitted, but must be done before October 15, 2003.  The SSILA 
preregistration fee is $80 for regular members, $65 for retired members, 
and $35 for student or unemployed members.  This amount includes the LSA 
advance registration fee plus an SSILA registration fee of $10 ($5 for 
students and others with reduced rates) to cover costs that SSILA must pay 
separately.  If you preregister through SSILA, no further meeting 
registration fee is required, even if you are giving a paper in an LSA 
session.  If you choose to preregister through LSA, payment of the $10 (or 
$5) SSILA fee directly to SSILA will be required before October 15, or your 
paper may be dropped from the SSILA program.


Participation guidelines
------------------------
SSILA generally follows LSA guidelines regarding participation in the 
meeting:  Any member may submit one paper proposal as sole author and a 
second as co-author, or two as co-author of each.  In addition, he or she 
may also be the organizer of a symposium or workshop.

Presentation of a paper (or other participation) in an SSILA session has no 
effect on an individual's eligibility to present a paper in an
LSA session, or in a session of another organization meeting jointly with 
the LSA.  Submissions will be separately reviewed by the various
program committees.  However, to minimize overlap with the SSILA sessions, 
the LSA program committee usually recommends that Field
Reports/Endangered Languages papers on American Indian languages be 
submitted to SSILA rather than the LSA.


Program Committee
-----------------
All submissions will be reviewed, and other decisions made regarding the 
structure of the meeting, by the 2003 SSILA Program Committee, a 
subcommittee of the 2003 Executive Committee, chaired by the President, 
Pamela Munro.
