VIEWS Portal
RID’s digital, bilingual publication dedicated to the interpreting profession.
VIEWS is about inspiring, or even instigating, thoughtful discussions among practitioners. VIEWS is on the leading edge of bilingual publications for English and ASL. In this way, VIEWS helps to bridge the gap between interpreters and clients and facilitate equality of language. This publication represents a rich history of knowledge-sharing in an extremely diverse profession. We seek to provide information to researchers and stakeholders about these specialty fields and groups in the interpreting profession. And we aim to explore the interpreter’s role within this demanding social and political environment by promoting content with complex layers of experience and meaning..
The VIEWS Index Project…
The VIEWS Index project was jumpstarted by Gallaudet University doctoral student Marc Holmes, CI and CT, NIC, SC:L in Spring 208. It includes a full list of articles and content in each issue of VIEWS from its inception in 1965 (under a different name) to 1992, and includes author, title, date, issue, and key words for each entry. We need your help to complete the last 26 years! If you would like to contribute to this indexing project, or if you have any feedback about the index, please contact the RID Communications team.
