Suggestions for new terms and volunteers to review language are invited for the Multilingual Glossary for Today’s Library Users, compiled by members of the Instruction for Diverse Populations Committee of the ACRL Instruction Section. The terms are given in English, French, Spanish, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Arabic. The aim was to assist English as a second-language (ESL) speakers and librarians working with them. The history of who has been involved is here. One obvious omission at the moment is the term "information literacy"! The glossary and definition of terms are linked to and explained here: https://acrl.ala.org/IS/instruction-tools-resources-2/pedagogy/multilingual-glossary-for-todays-library-users/
