To better serve the educational community, the Youth Library offers the following resources and services to teachers and students. The following resources and services are available to educators and students in the Youth Library, an area that focuses on young people up through 8th grade. In this area, find encyclopedias, almanacs, atlases, dictionaries, and other titles designed to aid students with their informational needs.
Books are available in a variety of languages other than English.
Braille books and magazines are available in fiction and nonfiction. Two forms are available to students on request at the Youth Reference Desk. The second acts as a voucher that the student has attempted to locate, but was unable to find, appropriate materials. Both forms will be signed by a librarian or stamped with the Tempe Public Library stamp. To give us advance notice of students' informational needs, teachers and librarians are encouraged to obtain copies of our Assignment Alert form at the Youth Reference Desk.
