Language Documentation and Description Volume 7<\/i> is a special issue containing lectures on topics in language documentation and description from the 3L Summer School<\/a> held at SOAS in June-July 2009. The lectures have been revised and expanded for publication, with added examples, diagrams, tutorial questions and exercises, and suggestions for further reading. Additional papers, by Peter Austin (practical advice on applying for a research grant) and David Nathan (on the role of audio, based on a paper published in the International Association of Sound Archives<\/a> journal), will make the volume particularly useful to aspiring language documenters.
\nThe lectures and papers represent state-of-the-art discussions of the theory and practice of language documentation and description by leading exponents, and the volume will be of interest to anyone teaching or learning about documenting and describing languages. The volume will be published in early 2010.
