 Spanish/English bilingual storytimes. This may be a good alternative for those of you at libraries already serving Spanish speakers, but unable to hire or contract with a native Spanish speaker to present Spanish and/or bilingual storytimes.  While this course
 costs quite a bit of money, remember there is no travel involved and you can participate whenever works best for your schedule.
