Minnesota’s library program offers books in Spanish to patrons

Through a collaboration between Claudia Roman Jimenez, a librarian with the Northfield Public Library, and Father Denny Dempsey of the Church of St. Dominic, books in Spanish have been available for checkout during a special library event on Sundays.

“The program, which has been in operation since May, aims to encourage anyone interested in picking up a book and immerse themselves in the language,” reports Northfield News. “The book rental operates as something similar to a bookmobile, with Jimenez bringing books from the public library and have them available for checkout between 1:30-2 p.m. immediately following the Spanish Mass at St. Dominic’s.”
