The Annual Meetings on Phonology is an international conference held at universities in North American each year since 2013. Its open access proceedings were launched with the first meeting of the conference in 2013, and were published by the Linguistic Society of America through to 2022 (https://journals.linguisticsociety.org/proceedings/index.php/amphonology/issue/archive). Starting with a combined 2023-24 volume they are now published by the University of Massachusetts Amherst Libraries. The editors are each year's conference organizers, and Joe Pater is the managing editor. For more information on the conference, go to https://websites.umass.edu/amp-info.
