The Yearbook is partly intended to provide an additional outlet for articles dealing with the literature and language of English-speaking countries submitted to The Modern Language Review, including some of the more ambitious or more specialized papers.
Contributions on English subjects submitted to The Modern Language Review or the Yearbook (other than those for special numbers of the Yearbook) will continue to be considered for both publications interchangeably.
This lively collection deserves to be read not only by specialists but
by students in need of an accessible introduction to the breadth of canonical
Victorian literature.
Matthew Beaumont, review of Victorian Literature (YES 36:2) in TLS, 30 March 2007, p. 24.

No correspondence is published in the Yearbook, nor are advertisements carried.
Scope
The Yearbook is devoted to the language and literatures of the English-speaking world.
Sample Article
A sample article is available here. Originally published in YES 33 (2003), John Scahill's article 'Trilingualism in Early Middle English Miscellanies: Languages and Literature' identifies a non-pragmatic 'literary' tendency in early Middle English trilingual miscellanies whereby texts acquire additional significance through their relationship to other texts and to the miscellany as a whole.
