INTRODUCTORY REMARKS
Session papers should not exceed 15 pages, and plenary papers are limited to a maximum of 25 pages (tables and references included; the spacing is roughly single spaced - see below for details).  The total number of pages for the main session volume cannot exceed 325 pages, and the LSRL 30 Organizing Committee will, in consultation with outside reviewers, rank the submissions received in order to select a maximum of 18 contributions for the main session volume.  The same length restrictions apply to both main and parasession papers, and a maximum of 11 contributions will be selected for the parasession volume.

Please note that submissions that have not been formatted in accordance with the stylesheet below may be returned, since only uniform formatting will allow the editors to ensure that the volume does not exceed the maximum number of pages allowed by the publisher.

Should you wish to receive a hard copy of a manuscript formatted to the specifications of the stylesheet below, please send an e-mail message to the LSRL 30 Organizing Committee (wiltshir@lin.ufl.edu). Between June 1 and June 15th, please address all inquiries to camps@rll.ufl.edu, as Caroline will be out of the country and unable to check her e-mail.

Authors who wish to have their papers considered for publication in the volume must send the editors:
    (a) a diskette copy in PC Microsoft Word  or Word Perfect
              (preferably Word 7 or Word Perfect 8/9)
              (Please name your files with your last name, *not* LSRL 30)
    (b) a disk copy of any special fonts used in the paper, such a LogicTimes, LaserIPA,
            or Arboreal, as well as a hardcopy of installation instructions and commands for
            those symbols and
    (c) 3 hard copies of the manuscript formatted for 8.5" by 11" paper (US letter size).
            Papers should be printed on a quality laser printer of 600 DPI or higher.
We recommend that all authors have their paper proofed by someone before submission.
Authors whose native language is not English should have their paper proofed by a native speaker.

GETTING STARTED:
(Detailed instructions for set up in Word are available at http://www.psu.edu/lsrl/style.htm)
    Set Font to Times and Size to 12 pt.
    In Word, set line spacing to exactly 14 pt; in Word Perfect, set line spacing to 1.06.
    Set Header/Footer From Top = 1.5 in; From Bottom = 0.5 in.
    Check the box Different First Page. Set Page Numbers Format = 1 2 3.
            (Do not check the box Restart at 1. )
    Do check the box Margin Page Numbers and set From Top = 1.5 in; From Right = 1.65 in.
    Set Margins Left = 1.65 in; Right = 1.65 in; Top = 2 in; Bottom = 1.25 in; Gutter = 0 in.
    Set Footnotes Position Bottom of Page; click on Number From 1.
    Check Widow Control and Even/Odd Headers.
    Set Default Tab Stops = 0.49 in.
     Use full justification (both left and right justified).
     Set the three tab stops at 0.25 in, 0.63 in, and 1.00 in.

TYPEFACE AND FONT SIZES
     Typeface = Times (aka Roman)
     Main text = 12 point (line spacing "exactly 14 point" or 1.06)
     Block quotations = 10 point (line spacing 12 point)
     Tables, Appendices, Figures = 10 point (line spacing 12 point)
     Footnotes = 10 point (line spacing single)
     References = 12 point (line spacing single)
     Chapter titles = 12 point capitals, bold
     Author's name and affiliation = 12 point capitals
     Acronyms/abbreviations such as ACC, NOM, ECP etc. = 10 point.

IMPORTANT: If your paper includes fonts other than Times for special characters or
symbols, you must supply a disk copy of the font(s), as well as a hardcopy of installation
procedures and commands.

CHAPTER TITLE PAGE
     The first page of each paper should begin on a recto (uneven) page with the title, author(s)'
         name(s) and affiliation(s), all centered.
     The title should appear on the 6th text line in 12 pt Times bold capitals.
     The author(s)'s name(s) should appear 2 lines below the title in 12 pt Times capital letters (not bold).
     The author(s)'s affiliation(s) should appear in 12 pt Times italics directly under the author(s)'s
        name(s). It should be followed by 2 lines of space then by the main text.
     The title page running head should be left blank. This means that this page counts as page 1 but
        is not numbered.

MAIN TEXT
     12 point Times (line spacing "exactly 14 point" or 1.06).
     When placing a technical term in quotes, use single, smart quotation marks.
        Use double smart quotation marks elsewhere.

RUNNING HEADS
     Odd numbered pages:
        (short) article title in 10 pt Times capitals centered with the page number
        in 12 point Times flush right.
     Even numbered pages:
        Author(s)'s name(s) in 10 pt Times capitals centered with the page number
        in 12 pt Times flush left. If more than 3 authors, please type in the 1st author's name
        in full followed by "et al."
     Space between the running head and the text should be 0.5" (or 1.5 lines)

HEADINGS AND SUBHEADINGS
    Headings and subheadings should be italicized and left-justified, and
    they should be separated from the text which precedes them by one blank line.
    Hierarchy
         Heading A = Arabic numeral (start numbering with 0) in 12 pt Times
            (not bold, not italicized) immediately followed by a period, then, indented
            to align with the first line of text, the title of the section in 12 pt Times bold italics
            (initial word of title only should be capitalized).
         Heading B = Arabic numerals (e.g., 2.1) in 12 pt Times (not bold, not italicized)
            followed by an indent to align with the first line of following text, then the title of the
            subsection in 12 pt Times italics (only the first letter of the first word is a capital letter).
         Heading C = Arabic numerals (e.g., 3.1.2) in 12 pt Times (not bold, not italicized)
            followed by an indent, then the title of the subsection in 12 pt Times italics (only the
            1st letter of the 1st word is a capital letter) followed by a period then one space then
            the text (i.e., there is no separate line for the subsection heading).

PARAGRAPH AND SECTION FORMATTING
     Set your formatting for even/odd pages.
     Paragraphs should be single-spaced and should not be separated from each other by a
        blank line nor should they be separated from section headings by a blank line either.
     Indent the first line of each paragraph one tab (0.25") even for paragraphs which directly
        follow headings or examples.

EXAMPLES IN TEXT
     Examples should be consecutively numbered using Arabic numerals such as (1), (2) etc.
        They should be indented one tab (= 0.25") from the left margin. The number of the example
        should be enclosed in parentheses. After typing the number, tab over once before beginning
        the actual example.
     If you have subdivisions within the example (a,b,c), place this after the second tab (i.e., at 0.63"
        from the left margin)  then begin the actual example after the third tab (at 1.00" from the left margin.)
     Examples should be separated from the main text (but not from each other) with one blank line
        both above and below.
     Examples in a language other than English should be italicized.
        They should be followed by a word-by-word English translation in plain text
            (Please align the left boundaries of corresponding morphs using tabs.), then
        by an idiomatic English translation in plain text, between double smart quotes
            (period within quotes).
     Acronyms/abbreviations in examples e.g. ACC, NOM, etc. should be in 10 point font.

FOOTNOTES
     All footnotes should appear at the bottom of the page, not at the end of the text.
     If you have acknowledgements, they should appear in the first footnote. This footnote is marked
        in 9 pt  font in the text (i.e., at the end of the chapter title) and at the bottom of the page with a
        superscripted star [*].
    The footnote following this one should be identified by the number 1.
     If you do not have any acknowledgements, your footnotes begin with number 1.
     All footnotes should be numbered consecutively. Numbers should be superscripted and should
        appear in 9-pt Times font both in the text and at the bottom of the page.
     All footnotes (including the examples or figures found in them) should be in 10-pt Times font. The
        text of the footnote should be separated from the superscripted number by one space. There
        should be no blank lines between footnotes.
     Examples in footnotes should be formatted in the same manner as examples in the text with two
        exceptions.
        First, no blank lines should separate the footnote examples from the footnote text.
        Second, footnote examples should be numbered using lower case Roman numerals
            such as (i), (ii), etc.
     Please keep footnotes to a minimum. No footnote or combination of footnotes should take
            up more than 1/3 of a given page.

CITATIONS
     Both in the text and in the footnotes, conventions are as follows:
         As Kayne (1982, 1994) argues,...
         ...(see Chomsky 1995)
         According to Montague (1975:353n.2) and Dowty (1980:258-260), ...
         On the semantic approach (e.g., Dowty 1982, Kamp 1984), ...
         Tranel (1981a:230-234; 1981b) argues that...
         ...PF aspects of ECP (Aoun et al. 1987)...
         ...head movement in questions (Koopman & Sportiche 1982, cf. also Chomsky 1986a)...
         As Rizzi (forthcoming) has suggested...
         See Zagona (1993a,b) for arguments.

TABLES AND FIGURES
     Tables and figures should be positioned within the text where you would like them to appear (not
        on separate pages at the end)
     They should be numbered separately from each other and from examples, and should be centered
        on the page, if possible.
     The label should be centered below the table/figure, should be in 12 pt Times font, and should include
        the mention "Table x:" where "x" is a positive integer, immediately followed by the name of the table
        in 12 pt Times italics. Only the first letter in the first word of the table's name should be capitalized.

TREES AND GRAPHS
     If possible, create trees using the tree-building font "Arboreal" from Cascadilla Press.
     Also, where possible, use tabs and not spaces to create your graphs/trees.

REFERENCES
    References should appear alphabetically and chronologically at the end of the paper in 12 pt Times.
    Please center  and bolface the word "REFERENCES" in 12 point Times capital letters, separated
        by two blank lines from the last line of text and one blank line above the first reference.
    A 0.13" hanging indent (not shown below for technical reasons) should be used for entries of more
        than one line and there should be no blank lines separating the entries.
     Below are some sample entries. Please follow the use of capitals, italics, punctuation, etc. as shown
        and note that,  contrary to what is shown below, all quotes are smart quotes.
