A New Publication Project
The Institute for Linguistic Evidence, in support of its general membership TALE: The Association for Linguistic Evidence, launched new journal, with the first volume in December 2013.
LESLI: Linguistic Evidence in Security, Law and Intelligence provides high-quality, peer-reviewed articles for the linguistic, security, legal and intelligence communities.
LESLI is published by the University of Pittsburgh for the Institute for Linguistic Evidence. LESLI is completely open-source, with authors paying only page-formatting fees and readers paying no fees.
