The Language Resources Guide highlights some useful resources for learning new languages and treating patients who speak different languages. Know of a great resource that isn’t listed? Feel free to email reference@westernu.edu and tell us about it!

The guide is separated into several tabs. Each tab refers to a different type of resource to aid in your language learning and contains instructions for accessing it.
