Electronic resource: National Linguistics Assests Database

[sm167]

Register for NCBE's National Linguistic Assets Database

Changing demographics in the United States and the resulting diversity in
U.S. classrooms have contributed to the need for practitioners and resources
for multiple language groups. To address this need, NCBE is developing a
fully searchable database of linguistic assets. The National Linguistic
Assets Database (NLAD) will contain the names and contact information of:

        Individuals fluent in English and at least one other language who
can serve as resources for schools and local education agencies;
        Organizations offering translation/ interpretation services,
referrals, or other language-related resources.

If you or your organization provides linguistic services, please register to
be included in our database by completing the simple, online form. Database
registration will be accessible later this week through the NCBE homepage:
