The LSA also presents linguistics research at the following events:

- Biennial Linguistic Institute, a unique event bringing together hundreds of students and faculty from around the world for a 4-6 week scholarly experience.
- CoLang, the Institute for Collaborative Language Research, a summer program highlighting research in language documentation and revitalization.
The LSA highlights major linguistics research findings in its News Room, and provides interpretation of relevant linguistics research for a variety of audiences through its FAQ pamphlets, articles on the domain of linguistics, and other resources found online.
The LSA collaborates with other scholarly societies, journal publishers, conference sponsors, and independent scholars to promote and advance linguistics research. Please visit the Resource Hub to learn more about recommended research external to the LSA.
