Learn a Language at Your Library « Durham County Library Tech Blog
The library has lots of services to help you learn a new language both from home and inside the library. Here are a few:
Tell Me More is one of Durham County Library’s newest online databases. Tell Me More teaches Dutch, English, French, Italian, German and Spanish (Spain and Latin America). Practice reading, writing, listening and speaking for beginning through advanced users. Learn everyday and/or business vocabulary. You will need your library card number to log in. There are detailed instructions if you need them.
NetLibrary is an NCLive Database which contains ebooks and eaudiobooks. It includes the Pimsleur Language Learning series as downloadable audiobooks which you can play on your computer or mp3 player. There are forty different languages available as well as many audiobooks for those who are learning English as second language and would like instruction in their native language. Call your local Durham County Library branch if you need the NCLive password or need additional help using NetLibrary.
The Library’s Catalog also has many books, audiobooks and some videos to learn another language. If you go to the catalog and choose the Subject Keyword search, type the name of your language followed by the word language and self instruction.
