1. LINGUIST List, New Calls and Conferences Area on LINGUIST

Dear All,

As you probably know, over the last year we have been working hard on
creating the new LINGUIST List website, designed around a relational
database, which makes it possible to properly classify all our records and
make them searchable by linguistic sub-field and subject language. This
immense task is now nearing its conclusion. One of the last remaining
sections of the website has just been completed.

We proudly present the new

		Calls and Conferences Area

Please take a moment to check out this new area of the site, either by
following the "Calls and Conferences" link from our home page, or by going
directly to

		http://linguistlist.org/callconf

Already we have around 300 conferences in our database, and this number is
increasing quickly as users enter new announcements, conference programs,
and calls for papers.

In the Calls and Conferences Area you can:

- Browse all upcoming conferences by date, subject language, or
linguistic sub-field.
- Browse current calls for papers, i.e. conferences that are right now
accepting papers for presentation; again by date, subject language, or
linguistic sub-field.
- Browse all conference meetings by year.
- Search for a particular conference by title, location, keyword, date,
subject language, and/or linguistic subfield.
- Submit a conference announcement, conference program, or call for papers
via convenient and easy-to-use web-input forms.
- Update information about your conference.

We hope that this latest addition to the many facilities now available
will greatly benefit the linguistic community. In addition to your calls
and conference announcements being disseminated to our 16,500 subscribers
in 105 countries as before, the new Calls and Conferences Area allows
detailed and highly specialized searching in seconds, and
cross-referencing with all the other key areas of our site.

If you have any questions, please contact the Calls and Conferences Editor
Karolina Owczarzak at karolinalinguistlist.org .

Visit our Calls and Conferences Area today!

Yours,
LINGUIST List
