Mango Day

On September 22, join LPL in celebrating Mango Day with a day-long (10:00 am – 7:00 pm) open house with refreshments and giveaways throughout the day. Staff will be available on the 2nd floor to give demos, answer questions, and help you get signed up!

Mango is free for all library patrons and can be accessed anywhere with an Internet connection. Each lesson combines real life situations and audio from native speakers with simple, clear instructions. The courses are presented with an appreciation for cultural nuance and real-world application by focusing on the four key elements of language learning: vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, and culture.

Mango offers access to 60 foreign language courses and 17 English courses taught completely in the user’s native language. In addition to traditional language courses, Mango also offers the opportunity to learn through foreign film with Mango Premiere™ and access to a variety of specialty mini courses, like Pirate, Medical Spanish and romance courses. Mango can be accessed at the library, remotely, or even on-the-go with apps for iPhone®, Android™, Kindle® and Nook®.

To learn more about Mango, stop by the library on September 22, or anytime, and ask a librarian for an introduction. Library card holders can access Mango through the LPL/APL joint digital content website at libraryla.org/languages. For more information, contact us at (207) 513-3135.
