Parlez-vous français? Sprechen Sie deutsch? Вы говорите русского? If your answer to these questions is non, nein, nyet but you would like to learn, then your Library is the place to start.
There are hundreds of language CDs and cassettes on the second floor that may be checked out for four weeks. The languages available range from French, German, and Japanese to Hindi, Hebrew, Sanskrit, and Irish. The Library also offers English materials for English as a Second Language students and teachers.
These audio materials vary in level of difficulty from beginner with instruction in the the alphabet and the days of the week to advanced with complex stories and translations. Various methods of language learning styles from the very formal to the very conversational are also represented.
If you are planning a trip abroad, looking to supplement formal classroom learning, or you simply want to explore the amazing world of languages, come to the Reference Desk on the second floor and let us show you where to begin.
