Portal speaks MyLanguage
After six years in operation, the MyLanguage website was recently redesigned. The site is an online portal to information in over 65 languages. Its aim is to make life easier and more inclusive for Australia’s non-English speaking population.
MyLanguage links to multilingual search engines, web directories, government websites, online dictionaries, and syndicated news headlines. It also contains translations of online government and community information relating to health, legal issues, settlement, education and public libraries, and information about multilingual library collections around Australia.
MyLanguage is a partnership between the State libraries of Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia; Public Libraries Services South Australia, the Northern Territory Library and Libraries ACT.
