Books on Demand?(read or listen)



The Library Media Center serves the entire school. It is always open for
student use, unless a teacher "books the space" for a class period. On
the morning announcements, when you hear closings for the Library and
the Lab, you are hearing that teachers have requested the space and the resources for a specific use. Sometimes there is a request for use of
the Library after the school day has begun. We are sorry for the
inconvenience this may occasionally cause.

Listen to the morning announcements for which periods the library is open.

Need to return a book? The Book Return is right inside the Library door.
Drop it off on your way past the Library.

Need a flyer to take home with the sign-on info to use the Databases
and Electronic Resources from home?
Flyers are in a box with
a green label straight ahead through the Library door on the top shelf .

Need something and can't find it? Just ask your Library Team, Ms. Mouyios and Mrs. Stephenson; we are here to help.
