Dear Subscribers,

As a not-for-profit academic organization in the US, primary 
funding for The LINGUIST List is generated by private 
contributions.  Without subscriber donations, our organization 
would not exist. 

In years past, only a small percentage of our readers have 
donated during our annual fund drive. In 2008, less than 4% 
of our subscribers donated. It is my hope that this year a 
greater number of you contribute, helping to ensure the survival 
of LINGUIST while reducing the financial burden of a few donors. 
Please consider making a donation of any amount – even $10 or $20 
would be helpful! Please urge your colleagues, students and 
friends to do the same!  

Your contributions allow The LINGUIST List to continue to 
provide FREE global access to services for linguists, language 
researchers and students. The LINGUIST List works to provide 
you, our readers, with timely information including:

- New book reviews – more published than the leading 
print journals
- Job announcements in both the academic and commercial 
sectors
- Updates on Conferences and Calls for Papers
- Funding sources for students and scholars alike

The LINGUIST List also develops and maintains FREE, online 
digital services including:

- EasyAbstracts (EasyAbs), an online abstract submission 
and review facility for conference organizers
- A Directory of Linguists, containing over 20,000 entries
- Searchable database of 455 journal titles, 550 publishers, 
bibliographic references and abstracts of 7,500 books and 2,500 
academic papers
- Links to free software, special fonts and corpora 

Donating to The LINGUIST List keeps our services available to 
you, the members of the linguistics community:

Your contributions keep our organization alive and support 
the growing commitment to develop and maintain free, accessible 
resources for all linguists. We are grateful for your donations!

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $60,000. This money will go to help 
keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming year.

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at  
https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later. To do so, go to:
https://linguistlist.org/donation/pledge/pledge1.cfm

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on how to 
donate by check, money order, or wire transfer, please visit:
http://linguistlist.org/donate.html

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 program, 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 program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
