Spanish Word of the Day
I think it would be great to have a Spanish "Word of the Day" or a "Phrase of the Day" to share with our staff. We have a short staff meeting every morning and that would be a wonderful time to share it, then email the word later that day for reinforcement. I've often thought of this, but need a boost from someone who knows Spanish. Any takers?

Kathy, that is a great idea! Below is a link to a list of words and phrases relevant to libraries in English and Spanish. It might be a great place to get started. We are going to keep a copy handy at our public service desks - it could even be used as simple pointing guide.

Let me know if anyone has trouble opening the document. Just copy and paste into a browser.
This is TERRIFIC! A great way to keep increasing our language skills.

Kathy, I'm curious to know how your "word of the day" project is going. Has it made an impact on staff's ability to help Spanish speaking patrons?
