As was mentioned last month in these pages, a Scientific Translations Center recently established in the Library of Congress will collect, catalog, announce, and make available for purchase foreign scientific translations from a large number of cooperating government agencies and laboratories, industrial laboratories, and scientific societies. Initially it will concentrate on translations of articles from Russian scientific journals with the possibility of eventually expanding the service to include enough languages to provide reasonably comprehensive coverage of the world's non‐English scientific literature. The Center was established by the National Science Foundation in collaboration with the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
