How to place a Book on hold from home
Many of our students have made requests to place a hold on a book. In an effort to make this more convenient for our students as well as better utilize our library time, I have made it possible for students to put books on hold with help from parents at home. The instructions are as follows:
1. Click on the Card Catalog link on the library blog.
2. Select login in the upper left-hand corner of the screen.
3. The students username is their student ID # this can be found on skyward or I can give it to the student at school.
4. The password is the students last name.
5. Search for the book you are looking for. On the right hand side of the book list in blue there is an option to "place a hold" click here, there select "OK" to confirm the hold.

Congratulations!
We want to congratulate all of the teams that competed in our Battle of the Books competition. They did an amazing job. We will be holding an awards ceremony on Tuesday, March 24, 2015, at 9:30am in the gym. We will also be hosting a battle between our top 2 teams against our faculty team. After seeing how great the students did in the battles, our faculty team has their work cut out for them!
A special Thanks to all the parent volunteers who helped moderate our battles, we couldn't have done it without you!
