Report for period from June 2017 to June 2018

Our raw submission numbers appear to keep the healthy trend of previous years. In the period between June 2017 to June 2018, we have received 153 first submissions and resubmissions, of which 11 were surveys and 15 articles submitted to a special issue. Of these 115 were rejected (85 as not suitable), 19 were accepted in the time period, 21 had to resubmit.
Average time to first decision during this period is 140 days (51 days including 'not suitable'). We received submissions from 41 different countries, the most represented being China, USA, India and Iran.

We have in the works one special issue, on Language in Social Media. Two more special issues will be in the works soon, one whose call for papers is out on computational historical linguistics and one whose call for papers will appear in August on multilingual semantic representations.

The search for the new editor of the journal is successfully closed. We welcome the new editor, Hwee Tou Ng, from the National University of Singapore and the new book review editor, Iryna Gurevych from Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany. Cristina Grisot will continue as the editorial assistant and Mike White as squib editor.

A longer assessment of these last five years of the journal and editorial opinions from the outgoing editor can be found in the Last Words farewell from the editor, in the June issue of the journal. [https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/coli_e_00320]
