Translations  Tags: translations science technology engineering  

• Dates - Articles may not have been translated until decades later. So an article published in 1950 may not have been translated until 1970.
  
• Transliterations - look under all variation of the title. Doklady Akademiia Nauk SSSR may be Akademiia Nauk SSSR Doklady in another. For Chinese transliteration use both the Wade-Giles and the Pinyin system. That means for Acta Zoologica Sinica, search under both Tung Wu Hsueh Pao and under Dongwu Xuebao.
• Some of these tools are online, but most are in print.

Help is just a chat, email, or phone call away.

Resources will be listed in order by format. Many are not online and will need to be consulted in the library.
