SALT Proceedings

The proceedings from last year’s SALT 20 in Vancouver are starting to appear. The editors explain what’s new:

This volume marks the first time that the SALT proceedings have been published entirely in electronic form. Tova Friedman, Roni Katzir, and Mats Rooth were leading advocates for the change, and have helped us deal with the inevitable challenges that arose. Our inspiration and model has been the journal Semantics and Pragmatics, and the assistance of its editorial and technical staff has been invaluable. We thank especially S&P’s founding editors, David Beaver and Kai von Fintel, for their generosity with their technical resources and hard-won expertise. The Linguistic Society of America’s eLanguage digital publishing platform has given the proceedings their new electronic abode, and Cornelius Puschmann and Dieter Stein have made us feel quite at home. Typesetting was aided by a small army of volunteer advisers, without whose expertise these proceedings might never have appeared.

The S&P Editorial Team is very happy to have been able to help this important project to get off the ground. [Clarification: Some SALT Proceedings papers from previous years are of course available in electronic form. In particular, papers from SALT 16 through SALT 19 are available through Cornell University Library’s eCommons. Apparently, these will eventually also be available at the eLanguage location of SALT Proceedings. What’s new is that publication will now be electronic only and so the eLanguage location is the definitive home of SALT papers.]
