Going away to a distant destination for a winter holiday? Want to brush up on forgotten high school French?
The Okanagan Regional Library has a free new online resource, called Powerspeak Languages, available through the ORL website at orl.bc.ca. With your library card and PIN, you can learn to speak French, German, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Spanish, as well as English as a second language for Spanish speakers, all in your own home.
For more information about Powerspeak Languages, contact the Summerland branch of the library, 9525 Wharton St., 250-494-5591.
