Explanation	LOBBYING ACTIVITIES: A description of the MLAs lobbying efforts in 201819 follows. Paula M. Krebs served on the board of the National Humanities Alliance (NHA), and Stephen Kidd, the executive director of the NHA, did the direct lobbying for the NHA. As in the past, the NHA board met to discuss the NHAs administration, staffing, budget, and support services. The NHA board formulated plans for educating NHA members and members of Congress about the importance and value of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and of scholarship in the humanistic disciplines. Kidd implemented the actions the board recommended. Humanities Advocacy Day is an activity of the NHA. The NHAs 2019 annual meeting and Humanities Advocacy Day were held on 1112 March in Washington, DC. Over the two-day period, 227 advocates participated in a range of activities, including advocacy training, an NEH grants workshop, a humanities grants overview session, panel presentations, a keynote luncheon, policy briefings, a Capitol Hill reception, and visits to congressional offices to request funding for the NEH and federally funded language programs. The MLA supported the event by paying transportation expenses for a member from a state whose legislators represented key votes in support of humanities funding. MLA member Margaret Johnson, professor of English and Director of Composition at Idaho State University, flew to Washington to meet with staffers from the offices of Senators Mike Crapo (R-ID) and Representative Mike Simpson (R-ID). In addition, she and other advocates met with Senator James Risch (R-ID) and Representative Russ Fulcher (R-ID). Paula M. Krebs met with staffers from the offices of Senators Jack Reed (D-RI) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Representatives David Cicilline (D-RI) and Jim Langevin (D-RI). In 201819, the MLA was a member of the Coalition for International Education (CIE), an organization made up of more than thirty national higher education associations. The CIE informs policy makers, education and private-sector officials, and the media about national needs in international and foreign language education and focuses on promoting and supporting Title VI and Fulbright-Hays programs. In May 2019, the MLA signed on to two of the CIEs letters, which urged the Senate and House appropriations committees to increase federal support for International Education and Foreign Language Studies, and Fulbright-Hays. On 1314 March, Lydia Tang, the MLAs assistant director of programs, attended a series of meetings on Capitol Hill organized by the CIE. International educators from thirty-eight institutions of higher education and nine organizations participated in the 2019 advocacy event. Tang joined a group of faculty members from institutions of higher education in New York State who met with staffers from the offices of Senators Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and Charles Schumer (D-NY) and Representatives Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), Grace Meng (D-NY), and Nita M. Lowey (D-NY). These meetings stressed the importance of the Department of Educations international and foreign language education programs, such as Title VI and Fulbright-Hays. In addition, Dennis Looney, director of the MLAs Office of Programs of and the Association of Departments of Foreign Languages, and Paula M. Krebs participated in CIE teleconferences concerning funding for international education and other Department of Education programs. The MLA was also affiliated with the Joint National Committee for Languages (JNCL) in 201819. The JNCL represents more than 300,000 professionals and has over 100 members, including national, regional, and state organizations encompassing most areas of the K16 language field. The JNCL holds its Language Advocacy Day and annual Delegate Assembly meeting in Washington, DC, where members promote public awareness of language issues. Looney represents the MLA at the JNCL Delegate Assembly meetings; he did not attend the 2019 meeting.	ExplanationTxt

FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART V LINE 4

ENDOWMENT FUNDS: THE ENDOWMENT FUND HAS TWO PRIMARY USES FOR THE MLA: AS A RESERVE FUND THAT UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES MAY BE NEEDED FOR THE MLA'S OPERATIONS AND AS A SOURCE OF FUNDING FOR NEW PROJECTS THAT THE COUNCIL DEEMS IMPORTANT BUT THAT THE ANNUAL MLA BUDGET CANNOT SUPPORT.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2

FIN 48 Disclosure: The MLA is subject to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, Income Taxes, as it relates to accounting and reporting for uncertainty in income taxes. For the MLA, these provisions could be applicable to the incurrence of unrelated business income tax on selling advertising space and renting mailing lists. However, because of the MLA's general tax-exempt status, ASC Topic 740 has not had, and is not expected to have, a material impact on the MLA's financial statements.

Grant Monitoring: The winners of the Modern Language Association's awards for scholarly publications are chosen by committees appointed by the association's Committee on Honors and Awards, which itself is appointed by the Executive Council. Only members of the MLA may be appointed to committees. The awards committees are made up of established scholars; the members of each committee that decides a specialized award are specialists in the field or fields covered by the award. Prizes are awarded to authors and publishers of print or digital scholarly books and projects, including editions, anthologies, and translations. Works that meet the published criteria for eligibility are submitted to the MLA by authors and publishers and are then forwarded to the relevant awards committees. Members of the committees review all eligible entries, identify the strongest contenders, and confer among themselves until they agree on a winner. The MLA awards $400 stipends to support travel to its annual convention. The stipends are available to graduate students, non-tenure-track faculty members, unemployed members, and regular and life members residing outside the United States and Canada. The MLA issues checks or sends wire transfers after reviewing and approving travel-expense forms, with receipts attached.

FORM 990, PART III, PROGRAM SERVICES, LINE 1	ORGANIZATIONS MISSION: The Modern Language Association of America ("MLA") is a nonprofit organization devoted to encouraging the study and teaching of modern languages and literatures. Founded in 1883, the MLA today serves its 26,384 members through publications, programs, and meetings. It works to advance the interests of the field in the higher education community and among the general public. The association was incorporated on April 5, 1900, by the general assembly of Maryland for "educational, scientific, and social objects and purposes, and more specifically for the promotion of the academic and scientific study of the English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and other so-called modern languages and literatures." The MLA constitution states that the object of the association shall be to promote study, criticism, and research in the more and less commonly taught modern languages and their literatures and to further the common interests of teachers of these subjects.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	BIBLIOGRAPHY AND PUBLICATIONS: The association serves teachers, students, and researchers through its publication program, which includes PMLA, a widely cited scholarly journal, as well as reference works, affordably priced course adoption tests, and books that meet the pedagogical and professional needs of those who study and teach languages and literatures. The MLA International Bibliography is a cornerstone of the MLA's research publications; it is available online and is a unique reference tool for those doing research in the modern languages and literatures, linguistics, rhetoric and composition, pedagogy, and folklore. More than 2,000 educational institutions subscribe to the bibliography. Submission to the peer-reviewed journal PMLA, one of the oldest and most respected journals in the humanities is open to all MLA members. In addition to scholarly articles, each year PMLA publishes the program for the MLA Annual Convention. MLA members receive a subscription to PMLA, and libraries throughout the world subscribe to the print and electronic journal. For over forty years, the MLA Job Information List (JIL) has facilitated the employment process in the field by listing postsecondary faculty vacancies and making the information available to job seekers whose goal is to teach English or foreign languages and literatures at the postsecondary level. The JIL is published as a digital database of departmental job notices that job seekers can search by field or language, by geographic region, by key words or phrases in job descriptions, and by rank. Access to the JIL database is available free of charge. The MLA compiles and publishes a number of other reference works for humanities teachers, students, and scholars. The MLA Handbook, now in its eighth edition, is widely used by undergraduate and graduate students in colleges and universities; middle school high school students; and professional writers and journal editors. The MLA published 15 new titles in FY 2018-19 and maintains a backlist of over 300 titles, many in long-running series.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B	CONVENTION, MEMBERSHIP AND PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES: The principal meeting organized by the association is the MLA Annual Convention. Long a forum for intellectual exchange, this annual gathering brings members together to report on their scholarship, to discuss new information about teaching and other professional issues, and to interview candidates for positions. By providing a forum for scholarly exchange, the convention strengthens work in the field. The 2019 meeting attracted 4,500 registrants. In 1997, the MLA established the Professional Education Assistance Fund to promote the study of modern languages and literatures by providing aid to graduate students to attend the convention; in 2006, it was expanded to provide aid to non-tenure-track faculty members and unemployed members. The fund provided 209 cash awards to qualified students and 38 cash awards to eligible non-tenure-track faculty members and unemployed members to defray their expenses in traveling to and attending the 2019 MLA convention. The MLA also houses the Association of Departments of English (ADE) and the Association of Departments of Foreign Languages (ADFL). The summer seminars sponsored by these organizations bring together administrators of college and university departments of English and foreign languages. The seminars encourage the discussion of common problems and the development of consensus about good practice in writing, literature, and language teaching. At the 2019 ADE and ADFL seminars, 262 participants from a large number of departments of English and other modern languages from 152 institutions attended. Membership Maintenance and Development: Association activities are designed to serve the professional and scholarly needs and interests of members and to provide members with opportunities to serve the field. In fiscal year 201819 the MLA had a total of 26,384 members. Of this number 4,891 were student members, 16,950 were regular members, and 4,543 were honorary or life members. MLA members are eligible to receive MLA publications and to submit essays for possible publication in PMLA. These essays are reviewed by specialists in the field who offer helpful criticism for the improvement of the essays. MLA members are eligible to submit essays for possible publication in Profession, published on MLA Commons. Authors for publication may receive comments from the members of the Profession Advisory Committee and other specialist reviewers. MLA members are also eligible to propose convention sessions and to participate in the convention program as speakers; they are eligible to run for office, participate in the associations various governance structures, and serve on association committees that oversee publications, the convention, and other activities. In addition, members may participate in the development of association policies and influence practice in the field concerning, for example, interviewing and hiring, institutional arrangements affecting class size and workload, and the evaluation of scholarship. The MLA Web site provides information about the association and its programs. Visitors can join the association or renew their membership, change address and directory information, learn about the upcoming annual convention, submit proposals for convention sessions, register for the convention and make hotel reservations, and review and order MLA publications. The site includes the MLA Newsletter in PDF, lists of forthcoming meetings, professional announcements, and a searchable program for the MLA Annual Convention, as well as a link to MLA Commons, a network that connects MLA members and provides new avenues for scholarly communication and collaboration. Association reports, professional guidelines, and MLA policies and procedures are also posted on the site. GRANTS: The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation awarded the MLA a grant of $1,900,000 to conduct Connected Academics: Preparing Language and Literature PhDs for a Variety of Careers, a project expanding on the MLAs earlier work in broadening the possibilities for doctoral education in language and literature. This project supports initiatives aimed at demonstrating how doctoral education can develop students capacities to bring the expertise they acquire in advanced humanistic study to a wide range of fulfilling, secure, and well-compensated professional situations, beyond postsecondary faculty positions. In the course of this project, which began December 1, 2015, and will conclude August 31, 2019, the MLA will undertake the following activities. Annual reports are provided to the Mellon Foundation. 1. Support three partners in creating doctoral education initiatives to promote career diversity. 2. Coordinate three Connected Academics Institutes at partner organizations, to facilitate collaboration on developing strategies and resources. 3. Organize three yearlong Connected Academics proseminars in New York City. 4. Provide training and resources to help transform doctoral education and increase mentoring for job seekers. 5. Expand the MLAs 201314 PhD Employment Study. The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation awarded the MLA a grant of $310,000 to conduct an intensive planning project in support of Humanities Commons. This project began July 1, 2017, and will conclude September 30, 2018. A final report will be delivered by December 31, 2018. The National Endowment for the Humanities awarded the MLA a grant of $300,000 for a project entitled Humanities CORE, in collaboration with the Columbia University Libraries, connecting an underserved disciplinary community with repository infrastructure to support access to, preservation of, and impact created by the scholarship. This project began September 1, 2016, and will conclude on August 31, 2019. A final report will be delivered on November 30, 2019. The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation awarded the MLA a grant of $1,000,000 for a project entitled Teaching Institutes on Reading and Writing at Access-Oriented Institutions. This project began January 1, 2019, and will conclude April 30, 2022. The Teagle Foundation awarded the MLA a grant of $45,000 for a project entitled Future of Doctoral Education. This project began July 3, 2019. Michigan State University awarded the MLA a grant of $11,500 to provide certain information technology services for implementation of the MSU Commons node on the Humanities Commons network. This agreement began March 1, 2019. Research and Programs: The MLA works to improve English and foreign language programs in colleges and universities, through support for the Association of Departments of English (ADE) and the Association of Departments of Foreign Languages (ADFL). Membership in these organizations is institutional: ADE had 566 member departments; ADFL had 704 member departments. The purpose of these organizations is to strengthen the administration of college and university English and foreign language departments. Toward this purpose, the ADE and ADFL publish two professional journals for its member departments, the ADE Bulletin and the ADFL Bulletin, which carry articles on standards in the field; guidelines for departmental programs; and statistical information about enrollments, curriculum developments, ongoing and new academic programs, and the status of faculty members. The ADE and ADFL Web sites make available policy statements, guidelines, reports on data collected in surveys, summer seminar information and registration, and moderated discussion lists. Some features are available only to members: the complete archive of the ADE Bulletin and the ADFL Bulletin; online voting in Executive Committee elections; the ADE and ADFL directories; a list of doctoral programs in English and comparative literature, American studies, and womens studies; and moderated discussion lists for ADE- and ADFL-member department chairs. Data Analysis: In fiscal year 201819 the MLA reported on the number of jobs that English and foreign language departments announced in the Job Information List (JIL) and published an analysis of how departments indexed and categorized the positions they submitted to the JIL over the seventeen years 200001 to 201617. These and similar reports are available on the MLA Web site, for use by members and by departments or divisions of English, foreign languages, comparative literature, or humanities.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B	Special Projects: Located on the MLA Web site, the MLA Language Map is an interactive tool free to the public that uses data from the Census 2000 and the 2005 and 2010 American Community Surveys to show the locations and numbers of speakers of thirty languages (including English) commonly spoken at home in every county and state in the United States. The Language Map includes data from a special tabulation from the United States Census commissioned by the MLA in 2004. The MLA Language Map also shows the institutions of higher education where a language other than English is being taught, using the fall 2016 enrollment figures from the MLAs census of enrollments in languages other than English. Restricted Funds Awards: Scholarly achievement is recognized through the prizes the MLA awards at the annual convention. Of the eighteen prizes awarded in 201819,ten were supported by restricted funds, the others by general funds. The ten funded prizes were the Katherine Singer Kovacs Prize for an outstanding book in English or Spanish in the field of Latin American or Spanish literatures and cultures; the Lois Roth Award for a translation of a literary work; the Matei Calinescu Prize for twentieth- and twenty-first-century thought; the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for Comparative Literary Studies, for an outstanding scholarly work in the field involving at least two literatures; the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for French and Francophone Studies; the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for a Translation of a Literary Work; the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for Studies in Germanic Languages and Literatures; the Howard R. Marraro Prize; the Fenia and Yaakov Leviant Memorial Prize for Yiddish Studies; and the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Publication Award for a Manuscript in Italian Literary Studies.

The council has a total of seventeen members: three officers, eleven at-large members, two members from the MLA Delegate Assembly, and the executive director. All members are elected, except the executive director, who is appointed by the council. The second vice president is elected by a vote of the entire MLA membership and succeeds automatically to the first vice presidency and the presidency. (There is a new second vice president each year.) The eleven at-large council members are also elected by a vote of the entire membership. (Three are elected each year to four-year terms.) The two Delegate Assembly members of the council are elected by the assembly from among the members of the assembly. (One is elected every other year to a four-year term.)
