FYI Body:	The Routledge Translation Studies Portal is now live and ready for your visit. The Portal offers a wide range of online resources and teaching materials, linking to key organizations and showcasing our broad range of titles in translation and interpreting studies. Lawrence Venuti, the leading theorist, author and translator, introduces the Portal in a set of specially recorded video interviews. He talks about how he became a translation studies scholar, what he sees as the main current trends and future directions and discusses his revised The Translation Studies Reader (third edition). Our Portal is broken down into three sections: - the Resources section offers students a wide range of online resources, from multiple choice revision exercises to a glossary and self-test online flashcards. There are also video interviews and lectures by our leading authors, including Mona Baker and Jeremy Munday - the Instructors section provides powerpoint slides linked to two of our bestselling textbooks - the Samples section allows you to browse sample chapters from some of our key titles. This is only the start, as we will be building up content daily.
