PLAIN eJournal

We are proud to offer the PLAIN eJournal as a benefit to all members. This digital resource is published twice a year. With this journal, we aim to keep our members up to date with international developments in plain language.

Examples of article topics that we welcome include (but are not limited to):

  • discussion about changes in plain language
  • case studies of particular projects
  • updates in developments in particular countries
  • interviews with plain language leaders
  • book reviews.

The audience is PLAIN members around the world. We have a growing membership in more than 35 countries. Because of our international reach, we welcome dual-language submissions.

You do not have to be a member to contribute. However, we prioritize member submissions over non-member submissions.
