DACS for Spanish-language finding aids

[mfeustle]

This would, of course, be a large undertaking, but it is an unmet need for institutions serving Spanish-speaking or bilingual communities.

@mfeustle a clarification question: are you proposing making DACS available in Spanish, or are you proposing that DACS include guidance on multi-lingual description?

[mfeustle]

@regineheberlein Both would be amazing, but in this particular issue, I had multi-lingual description in mind.

ICA provides documented guidance in 17 languages for ISAD(G). It likely could be very helpful to create translations of DACS in various languages, as well.

As a test, I ran sections through AI to create translations in various languages, but would require native speakers to proofread and edit to make them appropriate for public use.
