I am continuing to collect more notices. I would really like to see more global\/international (outside USA) notices, but it’s almost impossible for me to find them because of language barriers. If you have found non-English-language notices — or any other notices I don’t have here, please send them to me<\/a> as PDFs along with the original URL and the author (last name, first name), article title, publication name, and date of publication. Thanks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special thanks to Sarah Siladi for helping round up these articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will take a while to get the hundreds of notices documented, so I will post this page as “in progress.” At least initially (almost) all articles will be available in PDF format only.
