In honor of National Library Week, we're highlighting cool new things in the Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District's collection.

Learn a Language...on the go

Learn languages everywhere you go with our free app for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad app. Full featured, Mango Mobile Library Edition mobile app gives you access to French, Spanish, Japanese and 30 other language courses offered through the Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District. Through fun and engaging interactive lessons, Mango makes learning a new language fast, easy and incredibly effective.

Our free app accesses the Mango Languages courses available through your library, and works just like Mango online. Simply touch the screen to reveal answers and to hear pronunciations by native speakers. You’ll learn vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, and culture in each lesson through our methodology, called Intuitive Language Construction.

For the app to work, you must have an account with Mango set up through your library’s website, and an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. Once the app and lessons have been downloaded, you can learn at your own pace, with or without an internet connection.
