This is the first issue of volume 37 of the Nordic Journal of Linguistics. NJL is the journal of the Nordic Association of Linguists. Individuals may subscribe to the Journal by joining the Nordic Association of Linguists. The NAL membership form can be found on the Cambridge University Press web site of NJL, http://journals.cambridge.org/NJL, as well as on the NAL web site, http://www.uef.fi/nal.
We would like to remind our readers and potential contributors that there are three ways to contribute to NJL: (longer) articles, short communications, and book reviews. We would very much like to encourage contributions to NJL within all three categories, including short communications, which are like articles in being peer-reviewed, but different from articles in that in such a communication, it is possible to make or illustrate an empirical point without necessarily giving a fully-fledged and theoretically integrated analysis. Also, short communications are appropriate for comments on earlier publications in the Journal.
We are furthermore happy to announce that the issue 38.2 (2015) of the Nordic Journal of Linguistics will be a special issue devoted to Prosody in the Nordic Languages, edited by Merle Horne and Mikael Roll. For full details, see the call for papers immediately after this note.
Last, but not least: To all the reviewers who have reviewed papers for the Nordic Journal of Linguistics in the year 2013, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks for your time and effort, also on behalf of the editors of the special issue on Object Shift in the Nordic Languages, Maia Andréasson, Kristine Bentzen and Elisabet Engdahl.
