We just re-organized our Language Learning collection to make it a little easier to browse. We used to shelve these books in order by their Dewey Decimal numbers — long numbers that go something like 468.3421, and made little sense to anybody other than us librarians.
Our new system is much simpler; the books just go alphabetically by the name of the language, starting with Arabic and ending with Yiddish. We’ve also re-labeled all the books in that collection, and added some new signage that should help you find your way as you embark on a voyage of discovering another language.
Language learners and travellers, be sure to let us know what you think of the new set-up! And if you aren’t currently learning another language, try browsing through the section anyway; we’re pretty sure that something there will catch your eye!
