| Resum: | Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe the integration of a school library program into the English language program of a Spanish school. Design/methodology/approach - The paper describes the development of an English Language Arts Library Classroom (ELALC) in the English Program at the Col-legi SEK Catalunya, P-12 school near Barcelona, Spain. Findings - As schools in Spain do not typically have school library media centers or school librarians, the ELALCs are a way to bring the concept of a school library into a school culture where the idea is unfamiliar. The primary English language teachers at the SEK believe that the ELALCs will be a motivating environment for English language learning that will increase their students' motivation and involvement in learning. Practical implications - School library programs and librarians can and should take more active collaborative and instructional roles in language acquisition. Originality/value - The paper presents an innovative concept in providing school library skills and encouraging literacy by development of a hybrid library classroom or biblioteca aula , for P-12 schools that do not have library programs.
