Toowoomba Library: a place to learn conversational English
26 April 2013 , 3:34 PM by Belinda Sanders
The library of old... people would sit quietly reading for hours or researching school assignments.
It was a very silent place... a place for solitude for people who went there.
That is far from the case today... there is no SHHHHING in libraries these days.. the facilities are treated more like a community hub than a place of research work.
With that in mind... the Toowoomba City Library is hosting conversational English groups... targeting new residents who have settled here from a non-English speaking country.
The groups are designed to let people practice every day English.
Jane Hobbs is the Reference Librarian at Toowoomba City Library.
