"Languages will be learned online. And what's more, you'll never associate the word mango with fruit alone after you've taken Mango Languages for a test drive. This web-based language learning program (which patrons access for free through their library's site and use in the privacy of their homes) is intuitively designed and equipped with every tool imaginable, including audio narration."
