Winter 2013 edition of interaktiv now available

Drumroll, please! The long-overdue Winter 2013 edition of interaktiv is now available for download from the GLD website. Click here to get your own personal copy.

In case you missed it, there’s been a change of the GLD guard. In this issue you’ll get to know our new GLD Administrator and Assistant Administrator, Eva Stabenow and Michael Engley, respectively. Eva is featured as our Translator in Profile and Michael tells us about his “hog-ride” across the U.S. to the ATA Annual Conference in San Diego on his Harley Davisdon – report we’re calling Translator on Tour.

As always you’ll find an update on divisional business and an article by our most recent ATA Annual Conference first-timer victim. This isusue also features a personal story by Inge Noeninger and a detailed review of the latest CD-ROM version of the Ernst Wörterbuch der industriellen Technik by none other than Roland Grefer – a must read for you techies out there as far as I’m concerned. And don’t miss a collage of familiar faces from the GLD Reception in San Diego.
