Russell Scott Valentino replied to the topic Call for Participants: Translation Site on the Commons in the discussion
Translation on MLA Commons 10 years, 9 months ago<div>This is a great idea. It would be great to get ALTA and the ATA involved with this, esp. as they are working on a database of publishers and programs, and ALTA’s new website (which will have some overlap with the info you list above) will launch in the next few weeks. I can help.</div>
