After reading books, students are encouraged to use classroom as well as Media Center computers to take tests and to look at individual reading records. Beginning in first grade, students are taught use of the online Library Catalog. Instruction begins with the Regular Catalog and evolves into key word searches through the Key Word Catalog by the end of fifth grade. Students get information from the online Catalog to help them locate materials that they need. Two book fairs are scheduled annually through the Media Center.
Parents volunteer to help with the book fair.
The Media Specialist is available to help students and teachers locate information as well as resources. The Media Center is available for whole class, small group, as well as individual instruction. Teachers are encouraged to collaborate with the Media Specialist for group instruction in the Media Center.
