The Journal of Symbolic Logic (JSL) was founded in 1936 and it has become the leading research journal in the field. It is issued quarterly. Volume 71, being published during 2006, will consist of approximately 1300 pages. The Journal is distributed with The Bulletin of Symbolic Logic. The Journal and The Bulletin are the official organs of the Association for Symbolic Logic, an international organization for supporting research in symbolic logic and furthering the exchange of ideas among mathematicians, philosophers, computer scientists, linguists, and others interested in this field.
The main purpose of The Journal is to publish original scholarly work in symbolic logic. The Journal intends to represent the entire field of symbolic logic, which has become very broad, including its connections with mathematics and philosophy as well as newer aspects related to computer science and linguistics.
The Journal invites the submission of research papers and expository articles in all areas of symbolic logic. These may have technical, philosophical, or historical emphases. In order to be considered for publication, papers should be prepared following the JSL Guidelines and should be submitted to one of the JSL Editors. The Journal currently has no backlog and the expected time from submission to publication is about one year.
