<p>The <i>Canadian Modern Language Review</i> will feature a special issue of the journal on multilingual literacies in September 2008.<span> </span>Assumptions of monolingual language and literacy competencies in educational approaches are increasingly questioned by practitioners, policymakers, researchers and theorists who recognize the growing presence of multilinguals in communities, schools and the workplace.
<span> </span>Research on literacy has moved beyond a focus on one or two languages to consider the complex range of literacy practices adopted in diverse languages and spheres of social activity.<span> </span>In the last decade, work on the intersection of literacy and multilingualism has contributed to the emergence of theories of multilingual literacies.
<span> </span>Recent innovative literacy programs that include a variety of languages aim not only at meeting the needs of multilinguals and students of diverse heritages but also those seeking an education that prepares them to live in a global society.
<span> </span>The editors of this special issue invite researchers and literacy practitioners in Canada and abroad to submit articles in English and in French on theory, research, and practice in multilingual literacies.

<p><span lang="FR-CA">La <i>Revue canadienne des langues vivantes</i> publiera en septembre 2008 un numéro spécial<span> </span>portant sur les littératies plurilingues.<span> </span>Reconnaissant la présence croissante d'individus plurilingues au sein des communautés, des écoles et des milieux de travail, de plus en plus de praticiens, décideurs, chercheurs et théoriciens remettent en question les approches éducatives basées sur une vision monolingue des compétences en langue et en littératie.
<span> </span>La recherche sur la littératie n'est plus uniquement centrée sur une ou deux langues, elle prend désormais en compte la gamme complexe des pratiques de littératie adoptées dans diverses langues et sphères d'activités sociales.
<span> </span>Depuis une décennie, le travail mené sur l'intersection de la littératie et du plurilinguisme a contribué à l'émergence de théories sur les littératies plurilingues.<span> </span>Des programmes novateurs de littératie axés sur une variété de langues visent non seulement à répondre aux besoins des élèves plurilingues et des élèves de diverses origines, mais aussi à ceux d'une clientèle désirant recevoir une éducation pouvant les préparer à vivre dans une
