The book industry is a diverse, international business. Sometimes as a UPF intern, you have to contact people from different countries who speak different languages in order to maximize the potential of your book (well, Miami is practically a foreign country). Sometimes you have to research the Islamic calendar to figure out when an award submission is due when the listed deadline is the 27th of Jumada. Sometimes you have to use google translate to figure out which person is the Arts Editor, because you’re a terrible Floridian who never learned Spanish (only to find that the information you needed was in the datatbase anyway).
Ahhhh, internships.
