Spanish Technology Literacy OER

Dear Rachel:
About 18 months ago we used machine translation to convert 100,000 pages of English OER into Spanish (https://espanol.libretexts.org/). It isn't a perfect translation, but the need for Spanish OER was great out there and this was stop-gap starting solution that can be expanded on with human improvements. In fact, the Spanish library is now the 2nd most popular library in our corpus with 50M+ pageviews per year, which further emphasizes the need for non-English OER development.
We have some workforce resources that may be of use to you in the
Vocacional bookshelf:
https://espanol.libretexts.org/Vocacional
Please let me know if this is useful to you. Any new LibreTexts book can automatically be converted to any of 100 languages in this manner so if a new LibreTexts book is of interest to you and you want it in Spanish, also please let us know.
Regards,
Delmar
