Learn a new language at your library

Have you ever wanted to learn a new skill? I would love to learn how to speak Spanish. If learning a new language is on your to-do list, the Buda Public Library has a great resource that can help!

Mango Languages is one of our newest electronic resources. Once you’ve created an account through the library, you’ll be able to sign up for tons of classes in over 60 languages all for free.
