Welcome back,

The library has some new features this year, including a new circulation  system. This one is web based, so you can access it from any computer, anytime. [http//pac.asdk12.org8080/?config=845#bookriver] You can set up your own account (use your student number on your ID card), place holds on books and make requests to borrow books from other libraries.  Many more features are available, and I will be teaching their use to students in their classes.

Battle of the Books

List is available at the Battle website, also synopses of the books.  Paper copies are available in the library.  If you are interested in reading for Battle, please let Karen know and she will help you get in touch with others in your grade  and form a team.  There is lots of time,  the battles don’t happen until late January.

Library volunteers are “up and working hard”, thanks to all of the parents who are helping in the library.  Remember that this is an every other week commitment.  Your schedule for September is posted in the volunteer page of the library website. [www.stellerlibrary.wikispaces.com] Thank you for all of your help and making the room available to the students in the afternoons.
