Finding Spanish Language Videos

The best way to find Spanish language films is to browse the DVD collection in the basement. They are shelved together and identified with a red "SPA" label on their container spines. Feature films can be found under the call number PN 1997, sub-arranged alphabetically by original film title (PN 1997.2 are 21st century films). Most other call numbers are documentaries.
