The Small Virtual Library
Back to School Edition
Welcome to the Small Virtual Library!
August 2021
Welcome to the FIRST Small Virtual Library of the 2021-22 school year!
Each month I will send out a Smore with any library news and a list of books typically with a common theme, genre, or author.
Important info about each Smore:
- Each book cover will link to a video book trailer or book review so be sure to click on them!
- I will also list where you can access each book (in person and/or online) under each cover.
This month's virtual library is all about back to school and how you can start your year off with plenty of places to find amazing books and ebooks!
Need something? Stop by the library OR contact me via email (you will find my contact info at the bottom of the Smore) or checkout my library Blend page! (All students should have this on their Blend Dashboard)
Small Library Hours
Monday - Friday 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
- You may visit the library in the morning after the bell at 8:00 am and after school until 4:00.
- You may visit the library AFTER you eat lunch (starting week 2) just pick up a library pass in the cafeteria.
- You may visit the library during class as long as you have your teacher's permission and a signed pass with the time on it.
