Spanish for Library Staff

Introduction: 

Welcome to “Spanish for Library Staff” presented by the WPL Staff Committee. Hispanic Heritage Month is from September 15 – October 15. Each week a new topic will be sent out so staff can read. We hope this will help you build confidence in communicating with Spanish-speaking patrons at the library. Included topics will be:

• Basic Vocabulary
• Location and Directional words
• Days and Number
• Courtesy Phrases
• Communication Phrases
• Circulation Phrases
• Computer Terms and Phrases
• Frequently Asked Questions

In each section, you will read phrases in “English” followed by their “Spanish” translation.
