Visit https://www.accesstomemory.org for information about AtoM, the currently supported version.

Switch language view

Screen in English
Screen in French: interface and content switches

When installing ICA-AtoM, the system administrator selects the default source language in which all interface elements (buttons, field labels, screen titles and headers) and content (descriptions) appear. Any user can change the language view to one of ICA-AtoM's other supported languages.


1. The current language appears in the Language menu underlined.


2. Select the preferred language from the Language menu.


3. ICA-AtoM switches the interface to the preferred language.


4. If a translation of the database content into the preferred language exists, ICA-AtoM switches to the translation; if no translated version exists, ICA-AtoM displays the description in its original source version.


5. Currently ICA-AtoM (v0.6) supports the following languages:

  • Dutch
  • English
  • French
  • Portuguese
  • Spanish
