This blog serves as a look behind the scenes of the open access journal Semantics & Pragmatics. The journal was launched in the Fall of 2007 and is affiliated with, and electronically published by, the Linguistic Society of America (under the umbrella of their eLanguage initiative). We would like the development of Semantics & Pragmatics to be as transparent as possible, and thus maintain this editors’ blog.

”Beaver and von Fintel will be blogging the entire start-up process, offering a unique inside view of the business of starting up an open access journal. To follow their progress, visit the editors’ blog.” (MIT Library News).

We welcome comments and suggestions from everyone — if you have found your way to this blog, we will be happy to have your reactions and suggestions. You can email us (editors AT semprag DOT org) or leave a comment on any entry on this blog.
