Tulsa City-County Library (TCCL) CEO Gary Shaffer announces a partnership between Mango Languages, the Cherokee Nation and the TCCL to bring Cherokee Language lessons to the Mango Languages learning platform. Soon public libraries across North America, who offer access to Mango Languages, will be able to offer access to the first North American indigenous language (Cherokee) on Mango's popular platform and app to their customers.
Shortly after the announcement Shaffer and TCCL American Indian Resource Center Coordinator/Librarian Teresa Runnels inducted the Cherokee Nation, as the 2014 inductee, into the TCCL Library Hall of Fame. Cherokee Language lessons are set to debut at Mango in early 2015.
