Google Translate

There are at least two new reasons for Welsh speakers and learners to be cheerful which have emerged over the last few weeks…..

Firstly, Google has just added Welsh to the list of language on its translate service. This is a real boost to those of us who need to work bilingually on the web, either to track developments, or to improve fluency in a second language.

http://translate.google.com/#

Meanwhile, the Language Technologies Unit at Bangor University, has released free online version of Cysill their spelling and grammar checker for the Welsh language. This is another really useful tool, which has been making homework so much easier to Welsh learners for several years. Now it is available to all of us, which is great.

Teaching Resources Centre resources

We're currently in the process of redeveloping the Teaching Resources Centre (TRC) into an exciting new social learning space, which is due to open later this autumn.

In order to make sure the most popular resources held in the TRC are still accessible to everyone, many have now moved to the Library. You can now find the Teaching Practice Collection in the new purpose-built movable shelving to the rear of the Library. The Big Books are also now located in the Library, opposite the movable shelving under the stairs.

The Education Collection has been moved to the Library and is in the process of being integrated with our Main Collection. All these resources and their current locations are listed on HIP, the LRC catalogue.

We hope that you will enjoy using the new space when it opens and please do accept our apologies for any inconvience caused while we are in the process of relocating our resources.
