Dear Readers,

In 2020, in acknowledgement of the diverse composition of the local communities the Norwood News serves, we updated our website, www.norwoodnews.org, to allow users to read our site in Spanish, Bengali, Arabic, Chinese and French, using a Google Translate function.

Readers can translate the site from English into each of these languages by selecting the relevant language from the drop-down menu located in the top, right-hand corner of the home page.

As a nonprofit news organization, with limited resources, we decided to include this translation function on our site to help you, our community of readers, access local news in a way that we hope is more accessible.

We wish to highlight, however, that translation of the site into languages other than English is intended solely as a convenience to the non-English-reading community or to those residents with limited English proficiency, and that the translation is not legally binding.

The Google Translate function is based on artificial intelligence. As such, there is no human intervention, checking the accuracy of the translation. From a legal standpoint, the English language version of the site will always take precedence.

Thank you for your understanding, and for visiting our news site.

The Norwood News Team
