1. Harry Potter's fun Spanish-language
website
From: Ana Hartnett ahartnett@ci.sat.tx.us
Greetings, Bruce
Thank you for all the helpful information you share with us on SOL!!
I look forward to each of your messages. I wasn't sure if
you had already mentioned this site but it is very noteworthy especially
for any children's librarians (public and school) who serve Spanish
speakers.
What's also fun is that once you enter the site,
when you move your cursor on the screen stars appear and there is
a trail of stars anytime you move your cursor around!!
The main site I retrieved this from is http://www.infolibro.net
which originates in Argentina. The Harry Potter site's URL is http://www.infolibro.net/harrypotter
[Note: As of Jan. 2003, that link's dried up...gaze at http://207.44.135.243/index2.htm
or, if you're into the movie, http://harrypotter.es.warnerbros.com/ instead]
Hope this is helpful and useful to your subscribers

3. Spanish translation of Dewey Decimal
Classification system posted on PLUS
As stubborn as ol' Melvil himself, Flaco didn't
let a busted arm stop him from getting a Spanish version of the
1,000 DDC sections up on the Web at http://skipper.gseis.ucla.edu/students/bjensen/html/plus/ddc/00.htm
so have a look, and tell us if you find any typos.
