1. linguist, Thanks, and More

Dear LINGUIST Subscribers,

A few weeks ago we announced our plan to form an Advisory Board and
asked for volunteers from you, our readers. We had no idea that we
would get such a wonderful response. We have been overwhelmed and
gratified-- not only by the number of people willing to help LINGUIST,
but also by the lovely messages that many of you wrote. We will
announce the panel by the end of the first week of June, but we want
to take this opportunity to thank all of you who responded.
	
You may have noticed a new link near the top of our homepage, offering
access to the linguistics journal, Glot International. Published ten
times per year, each issue of Glot provides scholarly articles
addressing current topics in research, columns written by Elan Dresher
in Toronto and Neil Smith in London, Squibs (short, entertaining
articles), dissertation summaries and specialist reviews, book
reviews, hardware and software developments, as well as interviews,
conference proceedings, letters, and cartoons. This journal will be
available exclusively through Linguist List Plus in July, but until
then you may preview new issues simply by clicking on the link and
registering to do so. And if you go to:

http://wip.blackwellpublishers.co.uk/llplus

and register to receive notice when the LL+ subscription site has
been activated, your subscription to LL+ will entitle you to receive
Glot International for one year.

For those of you who missed the previous announcement, LL+ is a new
service, established in collaboration with Blackwell Publishing, which
will give you, in addition to the subscription to Glot International
mentioned above,	

	*Individual access to Linguistics Abstracts Online--the
	searchable database of over 20,000 article abstracts, working
	papers, and conference proceedings. 

	*The Linguist's Bookstore at Blackwell Publishing--offering 
	a 30% discount on all Blackwell books and a 20% discount on 
	Blackwell linguistics journals.

And with your subscription, you'll be supporting LINGUIST and the
linguistics community, as Blackwell has generously agreed to donate
20% of each subscription to LINGUIST List. For more details, see
LINGUIST 12.1324.
	
We hope you will find this to be a valuable service, and of course, we
welcome your comments. Once again, we thank you for your support and
kind words.

	
Best regards,

LINGUIST
