Dear *ACL community,
If you wish to know more on how ACL publicity works read on:

Since July 2019, ACL has had a dedicated Publicity Director, who coordinates the publicity activities of the ACL's executive committee as well as *ACL's associated conferences and workshops. These conferences include: ACL, NAACL, EACL, EMNLP, and AACL. (1/6) 🧵 #NLProc

Dedicated accounts across different social media platforms were then created that unified all the random year-based accounts which would take time to collect followers but then were abandoned after one year. With the help of the past publicity chairs and ACL officers, we also compiled a publicity handbook. Access to these will be provided to the publicity chairs of each year. Please get in touch with the ACL's publicity director if you recently accepted a publicity chair role. (2/6)
#NLProc
The social media accounts are on Twitter (e.g., @aclmeeting), Mastodon, Instagram, Weibo, Facebook, and a dedicated group on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/groups/10484931/). Note that both relevant CFPs and relevant job/student opportunity ads can be posted on LinkedIn. (3/6) #NLProc

Another aspect that is unified is the use of hashtags, which helps finding the relevant information more easily. For example, for the ACL's main conference, we recommend #ACL<YEAR>NLP combined with #NLProc. These hashtags are added to the official accounts descriptions. (4/6) #NLProc
To send CFPs of all the associated conferences and workshops, there is an [email protected] email which is subscribed to a number of mailing lists. If you wish to send CFPs through this account (optional), please contact the current ACL's publicity director (check https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php/ACL_Officers). (5/6) #NLProc

For those running workshops collocated with the major ACL conferences, there is opportunity to promote your websites and CFPs using these dedicated accounts too. (6/6) #NLProc
