Library Quote: “The library card is a passport to wonders and miracles, glimpses into other lives, religions, experiences, the hopes and dreams and

strivings of ALL human beings, and it is this passport that opens our eyes and hearts to the world beyond our front doors, that is one of our best hopes against

tyranny, xenophobia, hopelessness, despair, anarchy, and ignorance.” Libba Bray Readers are welcome to provide the virtuous library quotes which will be properly acknowledged and the best quote will be imprinted in the incoming issue of ILA Newsletter along with the name of the sender.

Professional News

National Book Trust (NBT) is getting ready to publish books in small languages and dialects of India

The National Book Trust is getting the presses ready to publish books in small languages and dialects of India to promote

their use and protect them. Recently, the trust, an autonomous institution under the Union Human Resource

Development Ministry, convened a workshop on the Kokborok language of Tripura, with scholars and illustrators invited

to participate. On the basis of the discussions, 10 books in the language will be published.

Kokborok is the language of the Borok tribe of Tripura, which has a population of about 15 lakh. While Kokborok had a

script called Koloma, the Roman and Bengali scripts have been used to write it. The books will be published in the Bengali

script. “We will publish children's books with stories, pictures and illustrations to make such mother tongues come alive

for the children of those communities, as it is these children who will take them forward,” said an official not wishing to

be named. The NBT will organise a Bodo workshop soon, and this too will be aimed at identifying what books can be

published in the language used by the Bodo community in Assam. The Devanagari script has been generally used for

writing the language, one of the 22 scheduled languages of India since 1963.

The trust has already brought out eight books in dialects used in the Bastar region of Chhattisgarh in the Devanagari

script. It has also brought out books on society, Mahatma Gandhi, children’s themes and so on, in Maithili, a scheduled

language of India spoken in north Bihar, and Magahi and Bhojpuri, both dialects used in Bihar. It is also likely to publish

books in Vajjika and Angika, two other dialects of Bihar. The script for all these books in mother tongues of different parts

of Bihar will be Devanagari. The details of the news can be had from: http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-

states/in-kokborok-prologue-to-a-new-imprint/article9154871.ece

Google Translator becomes more accurate

Google recently launched an updated translation tool that utilizes sophisticated artificial intelligence to produce startlingly

accurate language translations. While the tool has been used to successfully translate between English and Spanish, French

and Chinese in a research setting, it’s only available currently to everyday users for Chinese to English translations. The

new system, which uses deep machine learning to mimic the functioning of a human brain, is called the Google Neural

Machine Translation system, or GNMT. To test the system, Google had human raters evaluate translations on a scale from

0 to 6. Translating from English to Spanish, the new Google tools translation was rated an average of 5.43;

human translators earned an average of 5.5.
