SSHS Library Newsletter
Winter Edition, 2019
LIBRARY HAPPENINGS
We got off to a late start, but beginning in the new year, freshmen will be visiting the library to learn all about how to use: library print resources, library catalog resources, and our SSHS electronic databases. Students will also learn how to electronically highlight and take notes on database articles and how to download and save these notated articles to Google Drive and upload to Google Classroom. These skills can be applied to every subject at SSHS. To find out how you can have your students use these newly-acquired skills in your subject/class, please contact Carol.

New books should arrive in the library any day now. Here are a few of the titles all of your students will be talking about.
