Hi Tim,<br /><br />It is great to hear that you are working on translating the signage at your library. Another workshop participant suggested the Texas State Library and Archive Commisions site for Spanish Signage suggestions. The site even has sound files. http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/ld/projects/bilingualsign/index.html <br /><br />It looks like the tsl site suggests the following for translations:<br />Circulation: Servicio de Préstamo OR <br />Mostrador de Préstamo<br />Reference: Servicio de Referencia OR <br />Servicio de Consulta<br /><br />I didn&#039;t see a suggestions for Reserves. Is anyone else aware of a clear translation for Reserves?<br /><br />Laura

I am working on some bilingual &#040;English/Spanish&#041; signage as one of the activities for the outreach program. Here at the college where I work, we have some bilingual professional staff who are trying to come up with clear translations for the following signs:<br /><br />*Circulation / Reserves<br />*Reference<br /><br />I thought I would also submit this to the forum, in case anyone has ideas for what kind of verbiage would be best. <br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Tim Lockman<br />Kishwaukee College Library
