Spanish Community Service Learning Bibliography

by Ann Abbott

As a service to all who are doing research in Spanish community service learning (CSL) and to those who would like to read the bibliography in order to start a course or program, I thought it would be a nice idea to keep an updated bibliography on this blog. Whenever you see a new article, book or textbook on Spanish CSL or foreign-language CSL in general, please leave me a comment or e-mail me at arabbott@illinois.edu, and I will update this bibliography.

I thought I would do this on delicious, but I couldn't find urls for all the articles. Maybe one of my readers will tell me how to do that. Please.
