Teachers & Parents

Learning Tools

The Library has a variety of resources to help your children or students complete their assignments and build their skills. Please see our Homework Help page for more information.

Assignment Alert Form

Teachers, please fill out the Assignment Alert Form to keep us informed of upcoming assignments that will likely require the use of Library materials. The opportunity to prepare allows us to best serve your students.

Library Visits

We can visit your students in the classroom, or you can arrange a visit to the Library. A librarian can read to your class, show students how to use the Library, give a tour of the Youth Services Department, demonstrate catalog searching, and explain our online resources. Please Contact Us for more information or to schedule a visit.

Scout Troops

We can teach your troop about the Library and demonstrate how to find materials and conduct research. Please Contact Us for more information or to schedule a visit.
