The Truckee Library offers a variety of programming for our Spanish-speaking community. Programming includes Spanish-language introduction to computer classes, a book club, adulty literacy tutors, and English conversation groups.

For Spanish speakers seeking to improve their computer skills, the library offers classes taught in Spanish for patrons to get comfortable using tools such as Google and Microsoft platforms. Advance registration is required.

Additionally, a monthly Spanish-language book club is offered, and a new book will be discussed each month. February’s title is Las Madres by Esmerelda Santiago. Contact the Truckee Library to obtain a copy.

Lastly, the library continues to operate a long-standing Adult Literacy Program where any adult needing assistance with improving their English language reading or writing skills may seek a tutor. The program pairs learners with tutors free of charge. Additionally, English Conversation Groups are held twice per week on a drop-in basis for any adult seeking to practice their English language skills.

For more information about these services, contact the Truckee Library at (530) 582-7846. Xenia Dieter is the contact for computer classes and the book club while Laurel Raymore is the contact for adult literacy programs.
