Welcome to The Library!
As the library will be used as a teaching space, we will be doing things a bit differently this year. Students will not be able to come down and browse any time, as they used to. Teachers will let you know if you need a textbook or novel for your class and we will likely visit you with a cart and sign materials out to you in your class. If you're looking for books to read for fun, place a hold online and we will deliver your book!
Keep IN TOuch
