Welcome to the Malta Ave. Library!
...a place to read, wonder, learn, and grow.
Dear Malta Avenue Families,
We'd like to introduce ourselves and welcome you back to the Malta Avenue Library! While the library may function a little bit differently this year, we want you to know that your students are our top priority. If you ever have any questions regarding your student's library class, books that have been borrowed, book suggestions, or anything else, please feel free to reach out to us. We have really enjoyed getting to know your children over the last few weeks of school and are looking forward to what the year has in store for us.

Borrowing Books
This year students in grades K-2 will have the opportunity to select new books to enjoy every other week from a selection of titles that we will bring to their classrooms. Students in grades 3-5 will have the same opportunity (every other week), but they will also be able to complete a request form for specific titles and/or topics that interest them. We will bring these books to the students during their library class period. This is a process that could change as the year progresses. We are hoping to be able to do this with our younger learners as they become more comfortable with the technology and typing. We will be sure to keep you informed if that happens.
Happy reading!
Library Books during the Spring Closure
Upon returning library books, there is a quarantine and sanitization process that each item will go through before it will be available to other students.The process takes approximately 3-5 days.
