TheconferenceisorganizedundertheauspicesofSIGDAT,theACLSpecialInterestGroupforlinguistic data and corpus-based approaches to natural language processing. It is co-located this year with ACL- IJCNLP2009inSingapore. EMNLP received 475 submissions, a new record. We were able to accept 163 papers in total (an acceptance rate of 34%). Of these, 96 (20%) were accepted for oral presentation, and 67 (14%) for poster presentation. The papers were selected by a program committee of 15 area chairs, from Asia, Europe, and North America, assisted by a panel of 389 reviewers. This year EMNLP again held an author response period. Authors were able to read and respond to the reviews of their paper before the program committee made a final decision. They were asked to correct factual errors in the reviews andanswerquestionsraisedinthereviewercomments.Theintentionwastohelpproducemoreaccurate reviews. In some cases, reviewers changed their scores in view of the authors response and the area chairsreadallresponsescarefullypriortomakingrecommendationsforacceptance. Firstandforemost, wewouldliketothanktheauthorswhosubmittedtheirworktoEMNLP.Thesheer number of submissions reflects how broad and active our field is. We are deeply indebted to the area chairs and the reviewers for their hard work. They enabled us to select an exciting program and to provide valuable feedback to the authors. Additional thanks to the Publications Chair, David Chiang, who put this volume together. Jason Eisner helped us immensely by compiling a web site on “How to Serve as Program Chair of a Conference.”1 Special thanks to David Yarowsky and Ken Church of SIGDATwhoprovidedmuchvaluableadviceandassistanceoverthepastmonths.
