¿No Comprende? Spanish Health Information Resources for English Speaking Librarians

This 4-hour hands-on class will cover resources for learning basic, library, medical, and Internet Spanish vocabulary. You will also learn to evaluate and identify health websites in Spanish to which you can direct your patrons.  Upon successful completion of this class, each participant will receive 4 hours of continuing education credit awarded by the Medical Library Association.
