Two weeks ago, I found myself in Barcelona for a Sociolinguistics Summer School. Being the only deaf participant, and bringing two British Sign Language interpreters, I wrote some things down about my experiences working with sign language interpreters in academic settings. These notes became this blog post. I thought it’s interesting to share, and I’m sure other deaf academics and interpreters will have additional tips and suggestions (welcome!). Also, if you attend the Deaf Academics conference in Copenhagen in August, I will host a workshop together with Hilde Haualand, where we’ll discuss many of the points below. This is another reason why I share this post, to invite feedback we can use during the workshop.
