Both submissions and final papers must be prepared using the ACM SIGPLAN 10 point format. Templates for Word and LaTeX are available athttp://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/authorInformation.htm; this site also contains links to useful information on how to write effective submissions.

We are working to have accepted papers appear in the ACM Digital library.

A special issue of the Journal of Object Technology will be published in conjunction with the symposium. The authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their Smalltalk Directions submission to this special issue, which will then conduct its own reviewing precess.
