Subject: The Importance of Mailing List to LINGUIST
Dear Linguists,
Maybe we're biased, but we think mailing lists have a very important
role in our community, and in academia in general. With mailing
lists, you can keep up to date with news and events, find out about
and join in discussions, ask questions of your peers, and do countless
other things. There must be many people who agree, because there are
so many linguistics mailing lists out there--some whose scope is
broad, like LINGUIST, and some aimed at specific subdisciplines or
languages. Some have a web site but others do not; some keep archives
but some do not; and they all have different ways to subscribe and
unsubscribe. It's almost impossible to keep track of them all!
Wouldn't it be easier if you could access them all from one place?
Wouldn't it be even better if that place enabled you to search them
all at once?
The LINGUIST Mailing List project does just this. We archive any
linguistics-related list and make the messages available and
searchable from our site. Even if a list loses its support elsewhere,
we will continue to maintain its archives. Best of all is our
Multi-List search engine, which searches all 103 of our currently
archived lists at once, whether or not you are subscribed to them.
The Multi-List search is available at
http://listserv.linguistlist.org:8080/mls/html/index.html.
It is an incredibly efficient research tool; why not check it out?
Because we feel that this is such a valuable resource, we want to
archive as many linguistics lists as we can. If you run a list and
would like a permanent, searchable archive, please get in touch with
Michael Appleby at michael at linguistlist.org. You do not need to make
any changes to the way you run your list; all you need to do is
subscribe an address that we will give you. If you would like to
start a new list, we can even host it for you and provide software
support. See http://linguistlist.org/service.html for more
information.
We do not charge for any of these services. However, as you can
imagine, it does cost money to keep them running, and we depend on
your support for that. If our mailing list service is something you
use, won't you consider making a donation to LINGUIST? It's easy; it's
quick; and we'll be really grateful!
Thank you,
Michael Appleby
Listserv Manager

Subject: The People and Organizations That Make Up the Linguistics Community
Dear Subscribers,
Are you aware of the web resources that you can browse in our People &
Organizations mini-site? The site is not just home to the famous
subscriber-supported LINGUIST Cookbook; we also have links for
linguistic societies, project and research sites, and linguistic
funding sources.
You can find our listing of societies related to linguistics at:
http://linguistlist.org/sp/Societies.html.
There you can browse the listings of more than 140 societies
worldwide; you're sure to find something there that appeals to you.
For example, we have societies with the following specialties:
Lexicography, Cantonese, and the study of endangered languages, just
to name a few. You can also add a linguistic society at:
http://saussure.linguistlist.org/cfdocs/new-website/LL-WorkingDirs/
LL/WRs/user_input_wr.cfm?WRTypeID=8
While you are browsing our People & Organizations area, perhaps you
might want to look at the Projects & Research sites as well.
(http://linguistlist.org/sp/Projects.html) You can find about 190
projects sites on topics like Computational Linguistics, Discourse
Analysis, and Phonetics. And finally, don't miss our listing of
funding sources, which can be found at:
http://linguistlist.org/sp/Funding.html.
We hope you can take advantage of the resources the People &
Organizations mini-site has to offer! These valuable pages have been
made possible by readers like you, not only for the submission of
links, but also for your monetary support. We thank you for both!
Sincerely,
Marie Klopfenstein
Editor

Subject: How to Donate to LINGUIST and Contributors So Far
This year we hope to raise $50,000 to support the students who work on
LINGUIST List and keep the list running. Thank you from all the crew
for your support.
Below these instructions is a list of the wonderful people and
organizations who/that have already donated. Please join them and support
LINGUIST with a donation.
The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University
and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation,
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization.
Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986.
These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only).
For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching scheme,
such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer.
This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST,
without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a scheme.
