　　The main purposes of publications translation is to share and introduce domestic as well as foreign achievements of education and culture, to grow knowledgeability of the society, and to enrich the culture of human beings. However, current studies are relatively rare on what kind of foreign publications should be introduced, how to share our domestic scholarship with the world, and how to use national resources well to amplify the effectiveness of translating publications. On the basis of document analysis and the focus group discussion, this study explores the need and the ways of translating foreign publications into traditional Chinese and translating domestic scholarship into foreign languages. Comparing to the experiences of other countries, this study looks into the relevant policies of translation in Taiwan and analyzes the overall development of the domestic market over the past three years. In addition, this study also interviews local publishers for applicable ways targeted at the specific need of Taiwan. This study suggests that in terms of translating foreign publications, a broader types of books and a variety of original languages are necessary to ensure the multiplicity of imported knowledge; while in terms of Chinese into other foreign languages, promoting Chinese books in the form of long abstracts in English is workable as the initial but significant step to enhance the accessibility and visibility on the global market. Other suggestions include cultivating interdisciplinary and multi~linguistic translators and persons with skills of marketing management, recognizing the academic contribution of translation, and considering tax deductions for purchase of books and other financial supports to publishers.
