Using library search you can search by title, subject, keyword, author, or series.  Look each book over by clicking on the title.  Be sure and look to the far right to make sure there is at least “1 of 1 available.”  If the book you want says, “0 of 1 available” the book is not available for check out.
 
When you locate the library book you want, click on the title.  To the far right of the title you will see a button that says, “Hold It.”  Once you click this button you will get a prompt that says, “Hold request for (title).”  Please note you will only be able to place two books on hold at a time.  Make sure you chose books you want to read by looking at the book description as well as the book subjects under “Explore!”
 
Once you have placed a hold, no one else can check it out during the hold period (10 days).  Make sure you know the call number so you can locate your library book, when you stop by the library.  The library is open before school, during break, lunch and after school.

When using library search -

  • Click the "Add to this List" and your selected book will be saved on your personal list as a possible read at a later date
  • When the time comes for you to choose another library book you can open your personal list and place one of your saved books on hold or you can do a library search for your next library book.

It only takes a minute to drop off or renew your library book. So, don't let an overdue library book or fine stop you from participating in fun school activities such as rally's, dances, talent shows, and end of the year activities.
