Languages and services

The Multilingual Centre offers over 20,000 titles in both print and multimedia formats in more than 20 languages. Resources can be borrowed or consulted on-site thanks to listening stations and PCs with access to selected specific websites (podcasts, apps, video lessons, and links for language learning).
