>One resource that you might want to look into is Transparent Language. They are creating highly innovative electronic resources in foreign languages for the U.S. Government (Special Ops, Defense Language Institute and other departmentments). They are a privately owned company in Nashua, New Hampshire. They are using current research in langauge learning, and corpus and computational linguistics to build their tools and programs. I heard that they may be attending ALA. Possibly worth a look...
