The ACL journal, Computational Linguistics, continues to be the primary forum for research on computational linguistics and natural language processing. Since 1988, the journal has been published for the ACL by MIT Press to provide a broader distributional base. More about the journal (submission and review forms) .

An annual meeting is held each summer in locations where significant computational linguistics research is carried out.
