Machine translation literacy: Academic libraries' role
Lynne Bowker · Proceedings of the Association for Information Science and Technology · 2019
ABSTRACT English is the main language of scholarly communication, but most researchers are not native English speakers. Machine translation (MT) technology is advancing, but such tools rarely produce high quality output of specialized text without human intervention. There is an emerging need for MT literacy, and academic librarians are well placed to deliver it. This poster reports the results of an MT literacy workshop delivered at Concordia University Library.
