Governance Board update
- Google translate widget
- 85% of our traffic currently come through Chrome / Safari, which already have built-in translation
- Modern Languages has a NETIC (translation/interpretation corps) service. Interested parties can use this form to get in touch with them and get an estimate. As an approximation, the About page on soc.unl.edu is just under 500 words and would run $50-60. The translator rate is $30/page, and 500 words is about 1-2 pages of work.
- Text on our websites can be contractual - does including a control on our website imply an endorsement of the accuracy of that translation.
