Educator Resources

Educators and libraries go together like peanut butter and jelly!

We want to help educators any way that we can. Here are some ways you can take advantage of the library's services:

If you let us know of upcoming class assignments, we can gather materials from our library and other libraries to provide your students with a variety of items to help them complete their assignment in the best way possible. Tell us about an upcoming assignment!
If you are doing a particular lesson, we would be happy to promote useful materials to you and your students in your classroom. We can do this in person or virtually!
Invite us to booktalk some new books to your students to help increase their love for reading. We can do this in person or virtually.
Let us teach you about accessing an array of library-provided online materials from your classroom - using only your library card!
Learn how to use the resources below and share them with your students!
