Books and More in Multiple Languages

The Millburn Library’s World Languages Collection? Check out our special collections, located on the ground floor on the wall nearest the spiral staircase (behind the magazine shelf)— we have books in Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian, Hindi, Gujarati, Urdu, Spanish, Hebrew and French. We also have magazines in Spanish (Hola!, Vanidades) and Chinese (China Today). Gujarati Times is coming soon!

The Children’s World Languages Collection is in the Children’s Room. You will find it in the corner closest to the service desk. We have books for children in all of the languages above, plus Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Italian. We also have VOX books, so kids can listen along as they read the story.
