The library is getting a new HVAC system in early 2020. The target date for the changeover is April 15th. We will remain open as much as possible, but we will not be having any programs from January 1st through March 31st. We are warning our patrons that we will be a construction zone for 90-120 days, and recommending that they call before coming to the library. There will be limited space and some construction noise during this process. Due to these issues, we are recommending all paid tutors seek alternate meeting places. Unfortunately, beginning after Winter break, we will need to put the NHS tutoring on hiatus until April.

Can't find the next favorite book of a series for yourself or your child? Have a favorite title you just really want to read? If you are looking for a title that you can't find in our school libraries or our public library look on MeLCat! They will search other Michigan libraries and send the book to your local library for free! You just need a library card at your local library. The kids were so excited to learn about this service. Please contact us with any questions!
Here is a look at a couple of the early literacy eResources available for use:
Students in 2nd-5th grade have been working very hard learning how to use our library database.. This database is extremely useful in helping the students to choose amazing books, that they love and are at their level. This is crucial to their reading success. We passed out directions to access this at home. In case they became misplaced they can be found below.
Destiny Discover Your child can make book lists, check which books they have out and even leave book reviews!!! Go to http://libraries.resa.net; Choose Allen Park – Your child's school – Destiny Discover on left To log on to Destiny Discover, you should use the same number you use to log on in the computer lab (the 8 digit number that starts with 2000 or 2001) as your username, but the password is the ENTIRE 8 digit number again (in the computer lab it is just the last 4 digits). You can copy the number from your lunch card if you don’t have it memorized. If you have any questions feel free to contact us at [email protected] ~ Erin Woods [email protected] ~ Colleen Byrne What a wonderful 2019-2020 school year it has been thus far! The students have learned about book care, have been choosing some perfect books for themselves and have delved into the database and the new component, Destiny Discover!! We are so proud of the passion our students show for reading and are grateful for the support shown by our families & community. Thank you!!!
