The majority of the work we publish is by our staff in the course of their fieldwork. Works created by authors outside our organization maybe considered for publication. SIL's primary focus is endangered and underrepresented languages, and the books we publish are in areas of study related to our work. If you believe you have a submission that would fit into our area of study, please review the Submissions Guidelines webpage here.
