Each year the UW-Madison campus and Van Hise Hall host several summer language learning programs. L&S Learning Support Services has received a grant from the Friends of UW-Madison Libraries to purchase contemporary films in support of these programs:
• Arabic and Persian Immersion Program
• BALSSI (Baltic Studies Summer Institute, including Latvian, Lithuanian and Estonian)
• SASLI (South Asian Summer Language Institute)
• SEASSI (Southeast Asian Summer Studies Institute)
The films are in DVD format and can be checked out for three days to anyone with a UW-Madison ID. The collection is located in the Learning Lab, 259 Van Hise Hall. Summer hours are Monday-Friday, 10 am to 4 pm through August 7. See the Hours page for more hours.

It is great to see this collection growing! I'm curious what the most popular films are this summer. It would be fun to see what this summer's block-buster foreign films are in the Learning Lab!
