| 2024 April 26 ILAS-NET Message no. 2532 CONTRIBUTED ANNOUNCEMENT FROM: Daniel B. Szyld SUBJECT: Electronic Journal on Linear Algebra ELA, the Electronic Journal on Linear Algebra, is the flagship research journal of the Society; see https://journals.uwyo.edu/index.php/ela for the current issue. Several new editors have been added to the Editorial Board in the last year following the approval of the ILAS Journals Committee; see https://journals.uwyo.edu/index.php/ela/about/editorialTeam for a complete list of editors. We strongly encourage you to submit your research papers to ELA, your journal. ELA is a high-quality journal, and it is indexed by MathScinet, ZentralBlatt, and Scopus; adding visibility to your articles. ELA fits the category of "Diamond Open Access" since it is free of charge both for authors and readers. Your ILAS dues makes this possible, together with donations and the University of Wyoming sponsorship. I look forward to seeing your articles in ELA! Daniel B. Szyld (he/him/his) ILAS President |

| 2024 March 18 ILAS-NET Message no. 2526 CONTRIBUTED ANNOUNCEMENT FROM: Daniel B. Szyld SUBJECT: ILAS Lectures at Non-ILAS Conferences and General Support of Non-ILAS Conferences and Seminars As part of ILAS's commitment to supporting activities in Linear Algebra, the Society maintains a program of providing some support to non-ILAS conferences. This financial support may take one of two forms (a conference may apply for only one of these two forms). ILAS Lectureships at non-ILAS conferences. It is expected that ILAS lecturers will be of the stature of plenary speakers at ILAS conferences and may be supported by up to US\$1250 for expenses, or in the case of a Hans Schneider Lecturer, US\$1500. Reimbursement guidelines may be obtained from the Secretary/Treasurer. General support of conferences of up to \$1000. Such support could be used for support of student expenses, expenses for participants from developing countries, or plenary speakers. Refreshment costs are not eligible. You are welcome to consult the President of ILAS about what you may propose. This is a reminder that there is a deadline of 30 September 2024 for receipt of proposals for sponsorship of ILAS Lectures at non-ILAS meetings and for general support of conferences taking place in 2025. Please note that we will not be able to consider applications submitted after the deadline as it is important to rank all applications in one go. Each proposal is automatically assumed to be also a request for the ILAS endorsement of the conference. A statement whether the conference will adhere to the ILAS Welcoming and Inclusiveness Statement should be included in the proposal. Further details on the guidelines for proposals can be found at the following link: https://ilasic.org/non-ilas-guidelines/ In addition, ILAS may endorse a Non-ILAS conference, without financial support. Such endorsed meetings can list ILAS' endorsement on their website, and in turn, the conferences are listed on the website of ILAS-Endorsed Meetings: https://ilasic.org/conferences/#ilas-endorsed-meetings Daniel Szyld ILAS President |
