Good Morning!
I have a request from a teacher-librarian in my area and I'm hoping someone out
there can help me. Her question is as follows:
Where could I find research or information on shelving bi-lingual materials? We
have a quite a few that are English/Spanish and they are shelved in with the
English books. I have been asked to separate them into a "Spanish section" which
would be easier for the Spanish students. My thought is that they would not be
used much in such an arrangement because we have a larger percentage of English
versus Spanish. I also don't believe that the English speaking students would want
to go to the Spanish section. Our Spanish students also need to use the catalog
and other resources written in English. We do have a few books entirely in Spanish
which I could see separating into a Spanish section. I need some articles or
information regarding this question.l
Thanks in advance for whatever help you can give.
