ISSN 0736-0673 BEST COPYAVAILABLE From the Linguistics Coordinator With this issue of Notes on Linguistics I would like to draw your attention to several publications from LINCOM Europa, all of interest to field linguists.LINCOM has, for several years, served as an information clearinghouse in the field of linguistics, particularly in data-oriented field linguistics of the type that would interest most readers of Notes on Linguistics. These publications have become an important source of information for field linguists, as well as good venue for publication of their data-rich materials on hitherto undescribed or underdescribed languages. Languages of the world and linguistic news lines. U. J. LUders, ed. LINCOM EUROPA, Miinchen. Subscription (not including postage), 10 issues (outside Europe) US $100 (Individual), US $146 (Institutions), one- year subscriptions for institutions US $79. LINCOM EUROPA, P. O. Box 1316, D-8044 Unterschleissheim/Miinchen, Germany. The 'Languages of the world' section of this periodical is billed as `...an international journal on language typology, genetic classification of lan- guages, geographical linguistics and related topics', and the 'Linguistics News Lines' section includes news items on endangered languages, current linguistic research projects, reports on conferences, short book reviews, new approaches to linguistic theory, and a calendar of upcoming conferences. Issue No. 7 (1993) of this periodical is a good example of the range of material one might expect. It is 90 pages, full European page size (29.5 cm x 21 cm), with densely packed type.Three articles (averaging 11 pages each) in this issue are:'Diagnostic uses of typology' by W. P. Lehmann, `Jacaltec Directionals' by Colette Craig, and `Mbalanhu...Pronouns' by D. J. Fourie.Four notes on current research projects (averaging one page each) cover topics such as:Mixed languages, etiological analysis, China Minority Language Research Centre, and a pragmatics and syntax project at University of Bremen. A four-page report on 'General Linguistics in Spain' (written in Spanish) was also included.Seven book reviews average 1.5 pages each and all are on works relevant to field linguistics: e.g. linguistic typology, endangered languages, or reference granunars of a specific language. The remainder of this periodical includes information about past and future conferences, publications, courses or seminars. I highly recommend this periodical for SIL field entity libraries and linguistics consultants
