Each year the Society for the Study of the Indigenous Languages of the Americas sponsors a competition in which younger scholars submit descriptive works written that year on American Indian languages. The competition winner receives the Mary R. Haas Award, named for the prominent linguist. It recognizes and encourages the finest work in indigenous American language studies based on significant field work. This series was established to publish the award-winning monographs.
