A couple of years ago (wow...) I made a little Google doc to try and collect
references for the term "language ideology", in chronological order - to get a sense
of the evolution of the term. (My original email is below.)
I thought I'd re-plug the doc now, firstly to alert some email lists I didn't notify
first time around, and secondly because I just noticed that - over these two years -
it's become enormous! Looking through the revision history, to my surprise and
delight it looks like people have just been coming across it every now and then, and
adding relevant entries. There are nearly 100 now!
However, it does seem to tail off after 2013. So please do head along and add
anything more recent if you can - of course earlier references are also more than
welcome.

Ideologically yours,

P.S. Please ignore the plea for work in my email below. I'm now happily employed on a
permanent basis, at long last :)
