(A recording will be available under the CALL Academy People Connect Institute category one week after delivery)

Would you like to be able to say a few phrases in Spanish to help Spanish-speakers feel welcome? In this webinar, you will learn some basic vocabulary to greet patrons, discuss various components of circulation, such as check-in and checkout, that will get Spanish-speakers started using the library.

As a result of attending, participants will be able to:

  • Greet patrons in Spanish
  • Answer directional questions that will help Spanish-speakers get started using the library
  • Refer patrons to someone who does speak Spanish for more in-depth questions.
