The Naturalization Workshop at the Mountain View Library sounds like a wonderful opportunity. Is there some reason why those attending will only have questions answered in English, Mandarin or Vietnamese? Perhaps a separate workshop will be offered for Spanish speakers?

Update re my comment wondering about Naturalization Workshops for Spanish speakers: I spoke to Emily Weak, the individual listed as the contact for the Workshop registration. She said the decision to offer help in Mandarin, Vietnamese and English was based upon the library's usual clientele as well as the languages spoken by the presenters of the Workshop. She said they would love to see more Hispanic individuals in the library and would consider offering a Naturalization Workshop for Spanish speakers if they felt there would be such an audience.
