Serving the Publishing Community Since 1967

Linguistic Systems, Inc. (LSI) has been translating for K-12 textbook publishers since 1967. With expertise in scientific and non-scientific subjects, our work is fully verified for accuracy, writing quality, and vocabulary for the specified grade level.

LSI is one of the largest providers of language translation services for the textbook publishing industry. Our company works in 115 languages and has recently translated textbooks for middle school and high school math glossaries in 9 languages (samples of our work), American history in 12 languages, and a 1,500 page Spanish health textbook series, to name a few. During the past 39 years, we have worked for almost all major American K-12 textbook publishers and have translated over two million pages.

For large volume work, LSI maintains a unique system for capturing repeat material that reduces cost and turnaround time considerably, with the added benefit of total consistency of terminology. Every page is separately edited and proofread. The result is a new standard for quality in creating translations that are accurate, consistent, perfectly readable, and used in classrooms across the United States. 

More than 75% of our 4000 translators have advanced degrees in professional disciplines. You receive language conversions that lose nothing in translation. If you need a reliable source for press-ready work without loose ends, come to LSI. We adhere rigorously to your specifications and provide a finished product that is admired by educators throughout the country and beyond.
