Book & Journal Announcements on The LINGUIST List
Message to Authors and Editors...
Thank you for considering The LINGUIST List for your book or journal advertising. We get
many requests from authors and editors to post announcements about their dissertations,
journals, and books. We understand that a LOT of work went into writing and editing them,
and we would love to post every submission we receive.
However, as the LINGUIST List has grown, so have our costs. Maintaining the email list
as well as the website now requires 18 graduate assistants. Their tuition waivers and
meager stipends amount to over $70,000 year. To help LINGUIST continue our free service
to our over 25,000 subscribers, we have resorted to charging publishers for advertising
on the LINGUIST List.
As a result of this policy, we only accept submissions from actual publishers. It may be
that the publisher of your book or journal is already a
Supporting Publisher. If so, just
contact the publisher's office and ask that they submit your announcement. If your
publisher is not a Supporter of LINGUIST List, maybe you could convince them to be one! Often
all it takes is for a professional linguist to tell them how valuable posting on The
LINGUIST List would be to them. Have them contact Hannah Morales
at pubs linguistlist.org.
The annual fee for posting book and journal announcements on LINGUIST List is $1,200.00. This
entitles a publisher to post an unlimited number of announcements on LINGUIST during a single
year. The fee for posting a single book announcement is $125.00. All Supporting Publishers
will get their name and a live link to their website listed at the bottom of every
book announcement sent out on The LINGUIST List.
We feel most publishers will realize it is worth it to reach so many professionals so
quickly and so cheaply. Nowhere else can a publisher get a better "bang for the buck."
We do make exceptions to the publisher fee in extreme cases, i.e. non-profit organizations etc.
If you feel you fall under this category, contact Hannah Morales at pubs linguistlist.org
to discuss the matter further.
