Request a Book - In-Person Students

How to check out books if you are attending Garfield in-person.

Borrowing Books:

  1. Use the search box to search the Garfield Elementary Library's online catalog.

  2. When you find a book you want to borrow, click on the hold button. You will be prompted to Log-in to the site.

  • You will use the Sign in with Google option. If it does not sign you in automatically, use your district provided email and password to sign in.

  • You may place holds on as many items as you wish. The library will fill them in the order in which you placed them and they become available.

  • You may have up to two items checked out at one time.

  1. Available books that were requested by noon will be delivered to your classroom the next school day.


Returning Books

Book return boxes will be available on the first and second floors.

  • The return on the first floor will be by the supplies cabinet, near the water fountains.

  • The return on the second floor will be by the library.

Please put books through the slot in the top of the box.

All books are quarantined for 7 days before they are available for checkout again.
