New Web-Based Library Catalog . . . Check it Out!

The library introduces its new web-based catalog just in time for the beginning of the school year! Library patrons will be able to do a number of things online from school, such as:

-See if a book is in our library collection
-See what books we have by a favorite author or on a certain subject

And if a personal library account login is set up, you can:

-Add books to your personal online "bookbag"
-See what books you have checked out at any time
-See if you owe any library charges

The library catalog and library account services will be accessible from the Library page of the All-School Portal on the new AIS website. Workshops on how to use the new library catalog will be offered throughout the fall.
