How to take out a book from our library electronically:
From the Griswold Public Schools website, go to Schools, then Griswold High School. Click on the Learning Commons menu tab.
Click on the black "Destiny Discover" button
This takes you to our library catalogue. You can search in the search bar, or look through the genres, or even see if a book in the featured carousel is interesting to you.
Once you select a book, click on the book icon. You will see a blue button that says Log In. Click that and log into Destiny through your google account.
Click on the blue button that says HOLD. This will send the librarians a message that you would like this book. (If the HOLD button is not there, please email us with the name of the book and, if you can, the call number, so we can retrieve it for you.) The librarian will take the book off the shelf and deliver it to your A period classroom.
