Please remember that students coming to the library during the school day during class time MUST HAVE A PASS from the teacher. Students who come without a pass will be sent back to class. All visitors to the library including students, faculty, staff, parents, and guests will be expected to sign in this year. Sign-in is a simple process on any of the computers located on the circulation desk. This will help with end of year data on library use. The library will only be open to students before and after school this week due to counselor's working on student schedules.

Reserving the Library, Lab, and Chromebooks
New in the Library
Creation Corner is a new feature this year. Students can use this area to work on creative projects. Every week or two a new do-it-yourself project will be posted with instructions. If you have any materials you could donate to this area, please let us know. Perhaps you have a closet with craft supplies you know you'll never use. If so, please feel free to donate it to the library.
The library space has been updated slightly. Most tables are now located towards the front of the library though there is also a "Study" table available in the back as well as a "Collaboration" table with a dry erase board available near the reference section.
