In 1984, BAA publised the first issues of Vector journal, which gradually took the place of [[APL Quote Quad]] as the de-facto leading publishing channel for APL content. The journal featured submitted articles on array programming including [[J]] and [[K]], as well as news from APL and other array language vendors. Beginning in 2005, with volume 21 issue 4, the journal was issued online as well as in print, and some prior articles have also been made available online.<ref>Stephen Taylor.

Vector journal volume 21 issue 4. 2005-09.</ref> It was published quarterly until 2004, when late and sometimes skipped issues began to interrupt its formerly regular schedule. Releases slowed more significantly after 2008, and in 2016, following the completion of volume 26, the journal moved entirely to online publishing. So far a single issue has been published this way, in 2019.

The Webinars, are held using [[Wikipedia:Zoom (software)|Zoom]], and consist of half an hour of social interaction, followed by a single presentation of about an hour, and a Q&A session. The sessions are recorded with subsequent publication on YouTube. Some webinars are so called ''open sessions'' which are more similar to the monthly symposium, in being informal meetings where APLers discuss and present whatever they feel like, with no particular subject decided on beforehand.
