Interested in providing translation services? We are constantly collecting resources around translation to support our community. Here are a few examples of the resources you will find!
Translation Reference Materials
We have a collection of physical dictionaries in our center and you will find an extensive list of online reference materials in the U-M LibGuide on Translation Studies created in partnership with the U-M Library. It includes sections on Literature in translation, Works about translation, Translation Studies Journals, Translation resources online and Dictionaries.
Translation Tool Workshops
We are delighted to offer a series of videos on CAT Tools created in partnership with Dr. Elisa Duarte Teixeira, professional translator and professor of translation at the University of Brasilia. The videos cover essential topics on the intersection of translation practice and technology.
Translation Communities Online
Explore and connect with U-M affiliated communities, as well as other translation-based groups.
Resource Highlight!:
In our translation tool workshop series, professor Elisa Duarte Teixeira shares foundational knowledge of the role Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) tools, Translation Memories, and Corpus Linguistics/digital texts in translation. This is an invaluable resource for newly-starting translators or those looking to improve their technological literacy in the field! View the videos on our Translation Tool Workshops page or on our official Language Resource Center Youtube channel.
Coming Soon - in development are information guides and workshops on machine translation tools, such as Phrase, and how to integrate them most effectively and responsibly into the art of translation.
