ACL Policies for Review and Citation

The following policies are adopted for *ACL conferences (ACL, NAACL, EACL) and the TACL journal in the interest of maintaining and protecting double-blind review without sacrificing the positive effects of preprint publishing.

• For further motivation and discussion, we refer to the report of the working group appointed by the ACL Executive Committee: ACL Guidelines for Submission, Review and Citation.pdf.
• For guidelines to be used by conferences and journals adopting these policies, see:
  • ACL Author Guidelines
  • ACL Reviewer Guidelines
