New page

1. Handbook.
- It is continuously updated based on changes in the social media platforms. Publicity chairs are invited to contribute.
- The handbook is also in the process of being moved from Google Drive to the ACL HackMD.
- A page is created at ACL wiki (https://www.aclweb.org/portal/content/acl-publicity-information), which has a quick guide to the publicity channels. Since this page, there seems to be much more awareness about these accounts as well as an increase in requests for posts through "ACL announcements", and reducing confused emails to other ACL officers to find out who takes care of the ACL socialism media accounts. Note that Information on the ACL's publicity accounts was also shared in a tutorial in ACL 2024 (Presentation matters) with over 550 attendees.

2. New accounts are created on Bluesky platform (Feb 2025).

The following accounts are not very active, but we maintain them in case any conference would like to use them:

- Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/aclmeeting/ (we have lost access as the main contact is no longer responding). We need to find another volunteer to establish it (in mainland China).

5. Assisted Computational Linguistics Journal with establishing its social media presence.
