Explorers Are Readers
Information from the SWE Library
Dear SWE Students and Families,
This year checking out books from the library will look a little different. All students will have the opportunity to borrow books from the library. Face to face students will have the opportunity to visit the library with their class. Virtual students will fill out a form and come to the school on the dedicated pickup days and times.
All students have access to Destiny Discover through 1Link. This is where you’ll be able to read other eBooks OR look for books to request from the library.
Students are encouraged to checkout and return books each week. Face to face students will follow return procedures at school. Curbside checkout families may decide to get books weekly or biweekly and will return books at the front of the school in the large black bin by the benches.
Please don’t forget:
- Take good care of your books. Keep them in a safe spot at home or in your school backpack. Missing or damaged books will be the responsibility of the student.
- You still have access to all the databases in 1Link!
- Read E-books in Ebsco K-8, MackinVia, myON, Tumblebooks, JLG, Sora and Destiny Discover!
- Research different topics in Gale, Learn 360, World Book Online, and others
- Use the SWE Library Media page to find fun things to do or send me an email.
Happy Reading,
Kimberly May—Librarian
