Adding language options to the LS Online Catalog

After a meeting with the Spanish language subgroup -- Teresa Ashley, Carrie Gits, Melinda Townsel, Jen Weber -- it was decided to

  1. Stop creating separate Spanish Language catalog pages.
  2. Adopt a Google language widget.
    1. Melinda Townsel consulted with the International Students Office to determine which languages would be most beneficial for ACC students.
    2. Margaret Peloquin implemented the widget:
      1. Arabic
      2. Chinese (simplified)
      3. Chinese (traditional)
      4. French
      5. Indonesian
      6. Japanese
      7. Korean
      8. Russian
      9. Spanish
      10. Vietnamese
  3. The public implementation will happen in January 2014.  An announcement will be made at the All-LS meeting January 8.
