A Conversation with Julia Quinn
Anchorage Public Library is excited to welcome #1 New York Times Best Selling author, Julia Quinn to Alaska. Join us for “A Conversation With Julia Quinn” October 16 and 17.
Anchorage Public Library is pleased to announce the availability of Transparent Language Online, a complete language-learning system with courses and lessons designed to build listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Transparent Language Online allows learners to explore a new language in the comfort of their own home, at the library, or on-the-go.
Through APL's website, Anchorage cardholders have unlimited access to more than 110 languages, including English for speakers of over 30 languages. Transparent Language Online for Libraries is packed with pronunciation practice, speech analysis, grammar, writing activities, and vocabulary-building activities. This extensive language-learning program works on virtually any computer or mobile device through a web browser or mobile app.
We’re excited to see many indigenous and endangered language courses offered including Deg Xinag, Denaakk'e (Koyukon), Gwich'in, Hän, and Holikachuk. Transparent Language also allows access to KidSpeak™, a fun, age-appropriate online language course designed for children ages 6 and up!
Summer Discovery at Anchorage Public Library
The best way for children to keep their reading skills up and be ready for the next school year is just to read! APL is here to encourage reading and learning with our annual Summer Discovery program.
