We report the results of the spectral monitoring of the chemically peculiar (CP2) star HD 3980 in the Li I λ 6708 spectral region. High spectral resolution observations (R=88000) were carried out at Mount Stromlo Observatory with the 74-inch telescope and the echelle spectrograph. HD 3980 is a late type Ap SrCrEu star with strong double-wave photometric variations in the visible and in the near infrared. We estimated the effective temperature, surface gravity, mass, luminosity, and radius of this star. The monitoring of this star shows strong spectral variations, especially in the profile of Li I λ 6707.8. We studied the variations of the equivalent width and position of the Li I line as a function of the rotating phase and compared them with the magnetic field variations and light curves taken from the literature. The synchronism of the variations of the Li I line profile, light curve, and magnetic field strength can be explained in terms of the oblique magnetic rotator model. The strong variations of position and intensity of this line with the rotation phase enable us to consider this star as a new member of the intriguing group of "Li-spotted" CP stars.
