Livros em Potrugese - Books in Portuguese A unique feature of the Van Buren Branch Library is the Portuguese language collection. This select collection of Portuguese literature includes fiction and non-fiction titles for both children and adults. The Portuguese language collection serves to bring a little bit of home and familiarity to the many Portuguese immigrants who live in the Ironbound area and who continue to preserve their native language and culture. While most of the Portuguese children are fluent in English, many not only attend public school but also go to "Portuguese School" in the afternoons where classes are taught in Portuguese. |
