• Students must get a pass from their teacher to come to the media center.
• Students may come to the media center up to twice a day.
• Passes should be worn around your neck.
• When you come into the Media Center, use an inside voice and please do not run.
• Please use the following steps to find a book to check out and read!
• You can look up what books we have on OPAC, our online catalog.
• If you don’t know how to use it, just ask Mrs. Wright or Mrs. Kennedy.
• It’s also fun just to browse the shelves too!
• A shelf marker is the first thing you should get when you come into the media center.
• A shelf marker marks the spot where a book goes on the shelf while you are looking at it.
• Look for a book that may interest you in the storybook, chapter book, or non-fiction rows.
• Select the book you’d like to look at and slide your shelf marker in next to it.
• Pull the book out and leave the shelf marker on the shelf, marking the spot where the book came from.
• Look at the book.
• Read a page to see if it’s on your reading level.
• Decide if the book is interesting to you. If not,….
• Put it back in carefully by your shelf marker if you don’t like it.
• Make sure the spine is facing out so it doesn’t go in backwards.
• Pull your shelf marker out and go look for another book that interests you.
• Don’t take too long deciding! Your teacher expects you back in the classroom in 5-10 minutes.
• Once you find a book you want, walk to the checkout desk.
• Wait for Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Kennedy, or a parent volunteer to assist you.
• Tell them your I.D. number, which is your lunch number also.
• If you can’t remember your number, please tell them your first and last name, so they can look it up.
• Once your number is typed in, you can scan your book under the red scanner light.
• Your book is checked out! It is due back in two weeks! Enjoy!
• When you’re finished with your book, slide it into the book return slot.
• Now you can go look for another book to enjoy!
