Preface
The Fifteenth International Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories (TLT15) is being
held at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana (USA) 20–21 January 2017, for the first
time in the USA. This year’s TLT saw the contributions of 10 solid papers. Additionally, we
have the honor of including some distinguished invited speakers: James Pustejovsky (Brandeis
University, USA), with a talk on Annotating Quantifier and Modal Scope Dependencies in Uni-
form Meaning Representations, and Marie-Catherine de Marneffe (The Ohio State University,
USA), speaking about Universal Dependencies: The Good, the Bad, and the Potential. As a
new addition, we also are featuring a panel on Universal Dependencies, featuring William Croft,
Marie-Catherine de Marneffe, and Daniel Zeman.
   We are grateful to the program committee, who worked hard to review the submissions
and provided authors with valuable feedback. We would also like to thank various sponsors at
Indiana University for sponsoring TLT15: the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), the College
Arts and Humanities Institute (CAHI), the Linguist List, the Department of Linguistics, and
the Cognitive Science Program, as well as the Social Science Research Commons (SSRC) for
generously providing space. Last but not least, we would like to wish all participants a fruitful
workshop.
