[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are they more valuable than a second language?[/quote] Yes. Absolutely. Ever hear "Reading is fundamental?" Ever hear "a second language is fundamental?" Libraries facilitate literacy. Literacy in the earliest grades is crucial for academic success moving forward. Libraries expose you to a broader world than studying one foreign language. Everyone needs to be able to read. Speaking multiple languages offers advantages; but it's not a critical life skill. Libraries facilitate research required for other academic pursuits and assignments. [/quote]
