Setting Up Your Account

The first step in your learning process will be accessing the Mango Languages tool.  To do so, go to http://wblibrary.org/databases and click on Mango Languages at the bottom, or you can go directly to the site here.  The first page you will see is the login screen:

I chose to create a profile, which will allow me to log in later, and pick up where I left off in my lesson.  Simply enter your library card number, e-mail address, and choose a password you will use to later log on and click Sign Up.

Mango will then send you an e-mail with a link to activate your account.  Click on the link, and Mango will activate your account, and take you to your home screen:

Click Start Learning to see all the different languages that are available.  From Arabic to Vietnamese, there are many to choose from, and even courses designed specifically for those taking English as a second language.  

There are two types of courses, Basic, and Complete.  The Basic course offers conversational language understanding, while the complete is for those who wish to become more fluent.  I will start with the Basic course, then take the Complete course after completing some of the foundational principles.

Once you have selected your course, Mango will take you through the different lessons of immersive learning, and since you have an account, you can always come back later to pick up where you started.  

Good luck, and happy learning,
