In addition, we ask that subsequent publication of the work acknowledge its first publication in Tab Journal.

Though we cannot guarantee payment, we expect to pay $75 to each contributor for as long as the budget allows. For accepted poems, Tab Journal requires poets to provide an audio file or give Tab Journal permission to make a recording of the work. We are not currently requiring audio for work other than poems.
