Ozwords

Ozwords was a publication of the Australian National Dictionary Centre, a joint project of Oxford University Press and the Australian National University.

History edit

Ozwords began in 1989 as a simple typescript Australian National Dictionary Centre Newsletter with limited circulation. Its scope and production values increased with the number of subscribers[1] until it was re-booted as Ozwords Volume 1, Issue 1, of January 1994.[2] From October 1999 until 2019, it was published twice a year in April and October.[1]

Frederick Ludowyk[citation needed] (1 September 1934 - 15 May 2012[3]), writer and playwright,[4] edited the journal for some years.[5]

After 2012, it was also published online as a blog.[6][7] Its last issue was Volume 28, Number 2 of October 2019, at which time it was being published twice a year.[1][8]

Content edit

The newsletter reported on activities of the centre, such as the retirement in 1994 of the director, Bill Ramson and the appointment of his successor, Bruce Moore,[9] and some advertising material, but also included essay-length articles on some aspect of Australian vernacular, letters to the editor, and a twice-yearly competition, the prize being a $100 discount on any OUP publication.

Subscription was free of charge, on receipt of a written or faxed request.[9]
