Sock Drive for the Homeless
TAB Club is sponsoring a Sock Drive through December 17th. Donate a pair of new socks to help out the homeless in our area. Donations can be brought to the Library.
Please Encourage Your Students to Bring Back Their Textbooks On Time!
Textbook Returns will take place December 17-20th. Please do whatever you can to cajole your students into bringing back their textbooks as a class. When students don't bring them back in the Fall Semester, we are often short textbooks for the Spring. Click here to sign up your classes. Thank you for your help!
Continue Encouraging Students to Access Our Databases!
Students need practice with databases before they enter college, and we have some great resources for them with Google Classroom and Citation tools!
Gale is great for general research and opposing viewpoints, ABC CLIO is everything history and government, and the new ProQuest and Britannica Databases offer audio playback, Google Translate to any language, and access to primary sources. Students not only get access to high quality articles but also images, videos, recommended websites and more!
Want your EL students to utilize the databases? Britannica offers differentiated reading levels at the top of each article page. Click here for all of the links and passwords.
