Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

My name is Fatemeh Abdollahi and I am the publications manager here 
at The LINGUIST List. 

As you most likely know, LINGUIST List disseminates information for 
a wide variety of publications, such as Book Abstracts, Book Reviews 
(handled by our reviews team at The University of Wisconsin at Madison)  
Journal calls for Papers, Journal Table of Contents announcements, 
Software in Linguistics, and also maintain a database of Journals and 
publishers currently active in Linguistics. Our publications materials 
are quite extensive, with 1115 books, and 379 Journal Table of Contents 
announcements distributed within the past year alone, LINGUIST List 
serves as the premier site for nearly all announcements in Linguistics.

In addition to distributing information for the materials above, we 
have developed several exciting features with a few select publishers. 
Two of these are our Cambridge Extra Magazine developed with Cambridge 
University Press, and The Wiley-Blackwell Language & Linguistics Compass 
Discussion Forum. These features are highlighted further in another of 
our messages that you will be receiving during fund-drive, but both 
provide opportunities for you to peruse various journal articles at no 
charge at all! 

Cambridge Extra Magazine is available at: 
http://cup.linguistlist.org/

The Wiley-Blackwell Language & Linguistics Compass Discussion Forum is 
available at: http://linguistlist.org/pubs/blackwell/compass_index.cfm

Our Compass Discussion Forum has also formed a panel of highly 
distinguished linguists who are responsible for various aspects of 
the discussion forum. For more information on how you could become 
involved with this panel, please feel free to e-mail the publications 
team at pubs at linguistlist.org.

LINGUIST List is an incredibly unique organization. In no other discipline 
is there a source that is a central hub for all materials in that discipline. 
We announce to you, free of charge, information on journal calls for 
papers, book abstracts, book reviews and a plethora of other topics. In 
addition to this we house hundreds of mailing lists, web resources, blogs, 
and more. If any of you have used LINGUIST List for finding a journal to 
submit materials to, a review submission, or even to keep track of recent 
publications of books in Linguistics, PLEASE DONATE TO LINGUIST List TODAY! 

Your donations not only help keep LINGUIST List up and running, but help fund 
the educations of us students who post your submissions, and develop this 
site for your use!  LINGUIST List is a non-profit organization run by 
donations from users like you. Any amount would be appreciated, and will 
help us to keep our services to you free.

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!
