Dear Linguists,

We are happy to announce the French Sociolinguistics Bibliography Site
of the URA CNRS 1164 SUDLA.

The URL is:
                http://www.planete.net/~ntsekos/bibsoc.htm

The task of the "bibliography operation" of the URA 1164 is to make an inventory
of sociolinguistic publications in *french language* since 1985.
There are a number of downloadable files (in MS-Word format) and
you can also post your own bibliography (publications in french after 1990).

We look forward to receiving your visit.
