The New York Interpreter Manual is a comprehensive guide to interpreting services in the state of New York. It provides interpreters with information on the roles, responsibilities, and qualifications of interpreters, as well as best practices for working with people who are deaf or hard of hearing. It also includes information on the various types of interpreting services provided in the state, including American Sign Language (ASL), English-to-American Sign Language (EAST), Spanish-to-American Sign Language (SAIL), and Oral Interpreting. Additionally, the New York Interpreter Manual outlines the process for obtaining an interpreter certification, and provides resources for interpreters to access in order to stay up to date on the latest developments in interpreting services. There are two versions of the New York Interpreter Manual: one for interpreters and another for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
