The foreign language resources in our collection include:

• An extensive collection of language lessons on CD and cassette

• Many bilingual dictionaries

Computer-based learning options include:

• Interactive lessons on flash drives (Spanish, French, Italian, Chinese), available for check-out at the circ desk
