    Agenda:
    Join the ACRL Language and Linguistics Discussion Group for another lively chat about global languages and linguistics in the contemporary academic library. 
    This time we'll be crowdsourcing our difficult reference and research questions that have come up, including translation services for undergraduate-level research, where to find resources on early modern Spanish syntax, and the best methods for tracing changes in semantics and word use over time. Please bring your questions to discuss as well.
