Call for Papers
SALT 16
Semantics and Linguistic Theory
University of Tokyo, March 22-24, 2006
http://research.nii.ac.jp/salt16/
Submission deadline: November 14, 2006
We invite submissions of abstracts for 30-minute presentations (plus 10-minute
discussions) on any topic pertaining to natural language semantics with
relevance to linguistic theory. Abstracts must be anonymous and should be at
most 2 pages (A4 or US Letter) in length (including examples and references)
using a 12 pt font with 1-inch (2.5 cm) margins on all four sides. In the
interest of fairness, these limitations will be strictly enforced.
POLICY
Authors may be involved in at most two submissions and may be the sole author of
at most one abstract. No single author will be allowed to give more than one
presentation at the conference.
As a matter of general policy, SALT does not accept papers that at the time of
the conference have been published or have been accepted for publication. In
addition, preference will be given to presentations that are not duplicated at
other major conferences. We therefore request that authors indicate prior or
planned presentations of their papers along with their contact information when
they submit their abstracts.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT
All speakers will receive up to ¥100,000 (approximately US $900) as partial
reimbursement for travel related expenses.
PROCEEDINGS
All papers presented at the conference will be published in a SALT 16 volume
following the conclusion of the conference.
SUBMISSION DETAILS
We strongly encourage electronic submissions, which may be sent to:
salt16-submissionsnii.ac.jp
We ask authors to adhere to the following guidelines:
Please write the submitting author's name plus the word 'abstract' in the
subject line of your message (e.g., 'Jones abstract'), and include author
name(s), affiliation(s), contact information, title of the abstract, and up to 3
keywords in the body of the email.
Please send the abstract as an attachment. The abstract should include the
title, but not author name(s). We prefer .pdf files but will also accept plain
text or MS-Word readable files; if you send the latter, we ask that you send us
an .rtf file rather than a .doc file.
If circumstances force you to send your abstract via regular mail, please submit
1 anonymous printed copy plus a separate card giving the title of the abstract,
author name(s), affiliation(s), contact information, and up to 3 keywords. Also
include both the abstract and the accompanying information as separate .pdf,
.rtf or text files on an appropriate machine-readable medium such as a floppy
disk or a CD. Mailed abstracts should be sent to:
SALT 16 Organization Committee

DEADLINE
Abstracts (electronic or otherwise) should reach us no later than November 14,
2005, Japan time. We regret that we will not be able to consider abstracts
arriving after this date. Speakers will be notified of the results of their
abstract review by January 15, 2006.
