Databases with Translation Tools | Herramientas de traducción

When viewing any HTML (not PDF format) article using any EBSCOhost database, you have the option to translate an article into another language. When you click on the the "Choose Language" menu from the Translate tool, the drop down menu provides a wide selection of languages to choose from.  Al ver cualquier artículo HTML (no en formato PDF) utilizando cualquier base de datos de EBSCOhost, tienes la opción de traducir un artículo a otro idioma. Cuando haces clic en el menú "Choose Language" de la herramienta "Translate," el menú desplegable proporciona una amplia selección de idiomas para elegir.
Step 1

The article selected must have HTML Full Text in order to translate within the EBSCOhost app. Tap the HTML Full Text option.

El artículo seleccionado debe tener texto completo HTML para poder traducirlo dentro de la aplicación EBSCOhost. Toque la opción HTML Full Text.
