Around the middle of 2011 we received a request from translator Martha Ruszkowski to translate a Tuatara article into Ukrainian. Initially we were a little surprised by the request, but Martha explained that the article relates to her own professional interests, and that there would be readers interested from Ukraine.
A quick search for Martha's other work reveals she is busy translating content into Ukrainian and Belarusian on various topics from New Zealand gambling to Australian Botanic Gardens and beyond.
Permission was granted and a few weeks later Martha replied with the link to her Ukrainian translation of Plant Pirates by Miriam A Aiken. I think it's great to see NZETC collections reaching new audiences this way.
