We would like to draw your attention to one of our long-standing but constantly evolving projects: MultiTree, which can be found at: http://multitree.org/. MultiTree is a digital library of scholarly hypotheses about language relationships and subgroupings, or 'trees'. This information is organized in a searchable database with a web interface that now houses nearly 1,100 'trees', based on over 1600 publications. Using these facilities, you can: -Compare trees side by side -View full bibliographic information coded to trees by source -View information on hypotheses that have been linked to existing LINGUIST List databases, providing access to a wealth of information on related books, articles, dissertations, and conferences -Search by language, dialect or subgroup or search publication information. -Customize trees’ appearance by changing their size, color, and font -And more! MultiTree makes it easier than ever before to view and compare language relationship hypotheses. MultiTree began as a three year NSF funded-project in 2005 (BCS 04040000), and has been sustained for the last two years through donations from our loyal subscriber base. We could not have created this remarkable resource without your support! MultiTree can be helpful in personal or academic pursuits, or for interactive demonstrations in the classroom! Please feel free to visit our interface at http://multitree.org/, and we would enjoy hearing your feedback on this project. Thank you again for your support!
