Yes! They are typically located on the second floor of the library in the Family History/Religion section. To see what foreign language scriptures the library has in its collection, do the following:

  1. Visit https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/translations-and-downloads/scriptures/book-of-mormon?lang=eng
  2. Choose which book of scripture you want from the menu on the left. 
  3. Scroll down and find your language
  4. Copy the book of scripture's title in its own language under "Title"
  5. Visit https://lib.byu.edu/
  6. Paste the title into the search bar
  7. Then click the "Search" button to return search results.
  8. If you are not seeing results for the physical copies, then under the "resource type" filter on the left-hand side of the screen, select "book". 
  9. Select a record you are interested in viewing and either navigate to the item in the library using the call number in the record or just click "Request Item" and library staff will find it for you. Once it has been found, the library will notify you that it is ready for use and you can pick it up at the General Help Desk on Level 3 in the library. If the book is only available in Special Collections, click "Go to Request Form" to request to see the book in person.
